This tells you everything you need to know about this special talent. It's obvious that she has worked on the small details of her game that are needed to be a high level post player. Her footwork is superb. She is a strong executor of getting position in the post, pivots, pump fakes, jump hooks, face ups and jumpers all out of the low post. She gets up high on her shots and they are very difficult to block.  She appears to always be in control and is a sound decision maker.  She can recognize the double coming her way and can pass out of it when needed. She opens the floor for her teammates as the defense must collapse when she gets the ball near the basket. She isn't afraid to step back and take the 15 footer and she can knock it down with consistency. As she continues to develop over the next four years, it is scary to think of the possibilities of what she is sure to become.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='658949' first='Jakaila' last='Gaskin']","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"6'3u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"12120","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Northside Christian Academy","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"Crown Academy","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Jakaila had a tremendous weekend at the Summer Showcase, as she showcased her ability to dominate in the paint defensively. Jakaila has the chance to become a historically good shot blocker. She completely changes the way teams attack the interior as she will swat away nearly shot attempt that comes her direction. She is very long and athletically gifted. She can run the floor without missing a beat and will finish on the fast break or anytime she is fed the ball near the rim. She is a matchup problem as opposing teams rarely have the size to match up with her. The possibilities appear to be endless when you think of her overall development over the next several years in which she'll be playing basketball on the prep level.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["671513"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"The recruitment absolutely must pick up for this gifted 6'3 Center from Myers Park. Evelyn plays the game the right way and she has continuously improved and expanded upon her game. She runs the floor extremely well for her size and her defense has been rock solid. She did a great job owning the paint and redirecting traffic back out to the perimeter. She moves her feet well and she is a very good passer. She has good recognition when passing the ball out of the post and finding cutters toward the basket. She can post up on the low block and she is a very good rebounder. I am really looking forward to watching her continued development over the next two years as she is certainly trending up right now.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='735962' first='Ellie' last='Fyans']","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"6'4u0022","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"12120","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"Providence Day","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"FBC Queen City Ballers","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_3_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Upside. Upside. Upside. Ellie's improvement at the position over just the last month has been incredible. This tells me she is trending in the right direction. You can see her confidence continue to grow as she is starting to become a more dominant player in the middle and block shots around the basket. She's doing a good job boxing out her opponents and rebounding the basketball. Her sheer size alone is enough to garner the attention of colleges coaches and as she expounds on her game she can become a force.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"Nia Kirk","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"12120","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"Chambers","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"Lady Monarchs","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_4_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"It is absolutely hard to ignore the amount of toughness that Nia brings to the position when she steps on the floor. She is not afraid to mix it up inside and she will make things difficult for whoever wants to take the ball inside on her. Offensively she moves well off the ball and is a nice finisher in the paint. She had a nice turn and pivot move when she scored under the basket. She is a very solid big worthy of keeping an eye on over the next couple of years.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["496215"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Ayana is very imposing player in the paint. She is very physical and when she is in the game, you must feed her the ball. She is very good at gaining position on the low post against her opponent and finishing around the basket. She will use her force to back down whoever is in her way. She commands the double team and sometimes that may not be enough to container her. She is just a true throwback post player that played exceptionally well this weekend.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":6,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64a4ba2b4a0eb"} /-->
