A versatile defender that could switch screens and guard multiple positions. She's a solid rebounder that can also run the floor and finish in transition. Cadence showed her ability to attack off the catch and knock down the short jumper.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Summer Morgan | Guard | JB Ballers</strong> <strong>| 2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Summer has a big upside. She really uses her athleticism to her advantage out on the floor. In the open court she is tough to stop from getting to the rim. She loves to attack off the dribble and get into the lane to make plays. Defensively she can pressure the ball and uses her quick hands to get steals. As she continues to develop she will be one of the top players in the for the class of 2027.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1244288' first='Shaylie' last='Mayfield'] | Guard | Hustlerz | 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Shaylie is an unselfish player that looks to make the right play. When you combine vision with on-target passing you have yourself a good playmaker. Did a great job of pushing the tempo and making the right decision that lead to an open shot for her teammates.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kayna Keaster | Guard | Blue Devils | 2026</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kayna has a nice all-around game that caught my eye. Her shooting ability stretches the defense and gives her the opportunity to attack closeouts with her dribble. A knockdown catch and shoot threat from the three-point line, but can also finish at the rim in traffic. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='876339' first='Kenzie' last='McCrotty'] | Guard | Blue Devils | 2026</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kenzie showed that she could score in a number of ways. She's a shooter that can connect from behind the three-point line. She attacked off the catch, finished in the lane in traffic and scored with her back to the basket on the low block. She also secured defensive rebounds and pushed the ball in transition. She handled the ball vs pressure and was able to see the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
