Standout 2025s at Candice Dupree Invitational

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There were over 100 teams at the Wiregrass Campus and action packed from Friday through Sunday. We didn't get a chance to see all of the talented Sophomore prospects and teams, but we did catch a few. In this article we look at some of the top 2025s at Candice Dupree Invitational.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["243895"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='243895' first='Lena' last='Girardi'] came as advertised at Candice Dupree Invitational. The words that comes to mind are efficient and patient. In the beginning, she was just going with the flow of the game and not forcing anything, and then all of sudden the lid came off and she went on a scoring run, knocking down shot after shot.   Nothing was forced as Girardi knocked down jumpers from all over the court at the opportune time.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467d078e695b"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["346818"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":659353,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='346818' first='Jayden' last='Terry']rnrnReally enjoyed watching Terry on the courts. She is a well polished player who can do it all offensively (midrange jumper, drive to the rim, shoot the three, pass it, draw double-teams, etc). Defensively, she is an aggressive on the ball defender, smart player in the passing lanes, and is very good in help side defense. In transition, she usually gets a bucket or heads to the free throw line.   She had all of this going at the Candice Dupree Invitational.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467d078e69ce"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["370059"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":659358,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='370059' first='Nacoya' last='Blocton'] was a force at the CDI. Blocton plays the four position, but their is a lot of guard skills in her repertoire. She handles it very well in transition and gets to the rim with purpose. In transition, no guard is stopping her path to the goal, and usually the 4s and 5s are not in the picture in transition. She also has the stretch 4 abilities and can knock down the midrange and three point shot. She was a standout all throughout the weekend.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467d078e6a23"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["400774"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='400774' first='Jadynn' last='Spivey'] played well and was a standout in the 2025 class.

Instant offense and a delight in the transition game, where she can attck the rim on either side. The young guard can shoot the three, shoot the short jumper, and can knock down the floater.
