<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Girls Hoops Missouri takes a look at some of the top Missouri Class of 2025 point/combo guards that we watched at last week's Run 4 the Roses Classic in Louisville, KY.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":636930,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/04/IMG_9885.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-636930" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='375675' first='Tayla' last='Robinson'] ([program_tooltip program_id='713121' first='Lady' last='Brad Beal Elite'] 16U): The 5'5" point guard from Battle is the consummate floor leader who knows how to run a team and get everything organized while also being able to get a bucket when she needs to. She gets into the seams of the defense to create easy opportunities for her teammates with her passing. She can also excel while playing off the ball with her ability to score. She can knock down the open 3-pointer or hit the nice runner off the glass.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*****</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":676922,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/IMG_3033.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-676922" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='624398' first='Nevaeh' last='Caffey'] (Napheesa Collier Elite 17U): The 5'10" point guard from Incarnate Word Academy played a large role in Phee Elite's run to a bracket championship at the event. She was very difficult to keep out of the paint as she continued to attack on the straight line drive. She also shot the ball well from 3-point to compliment her driving ability. She is also an impactful player on the defensive end with his size and length. She's already picked up numerous high level Division I offers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":724350,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/07/IMG_4816.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-724350" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jayla Hawkins (Napheesa Collier Elite 16U McDaniel): A 5'7" point guard from Principia who has speed and quickness and a high basketball IQ. I was very impressed with her passing skills in the games that I watched her. She was dropping some slick dimes on the move, whether she was in the half court or in the transition game. She's very effective in the pick and roll where she can turn the corner for the layup or the pull up jumper in the mid range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":723003,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/07/IMG_4783.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-723003" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='302734' first='Anaya' last='Guess'] (Earl Watson Academy): A talented point guard from Park Hill with skilled handles and the ability to create her own shot off the dribble. She has a nice step-back jumper off the bounce, which she can stretch out past the 3-point line.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":691558,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/07/IMG_4320.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-691558" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='424774' first='Hannah' last='Fenton'] ([program_tooltip program_id='713121' first='Lady' last='Brad Beal Elite'] 16U): The 5'5" point guard from Pattonville is a tough cover with her speed and quickness combined with the ability to score at all three levels. She works the pick and roll very well as she can turn the corner and get into the lane or hit the 3-pointer if the defender goes underneath. She creates well off the dribble and will also set up the open teammate with the pass.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":446305,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2022/06/3410BDF1-7E9D-43ED-BC8E-B1C8355CD16B-scaled.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-446305" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='984301' first='CeCe' last='Harris'] (Napheesa Collier Elite 16U Wilkenson): A 5'6" point guard from MICDS who did a good job of advancing the ball upcourt with the pass to get the break started. Whenever she faced defensive pressure, she would automatically try to get downhill and to the basket. She had some nice finishes in the lane with either hand amongst the taller defenders. She has a bit of toughness about her and she doesn't give an inch on the defensive end.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
