<p>Welcome to another edition of Social Media Scouting... or something like that. I'm going to need to change the title soon, I think. I'm also going to need to start sending out links on Instagram and stuff. It seems like Twitter is getting weirder and weirder every day. Today I got a targeted ad for an AI essay-writing service. I'm not sure what they're trying to tell me, but I think the advertisements are getting more and more off-base. Maybe Twitter is losing advertisers? Who knows? What I do know is basketball prospects and today we have scouting reports for five very good ones, written by me... or are they?</p>

She is a beast on the defensive end and a u0022dawgu0022 when it comes to driving to the basket. Just a good old, hard-nosed basketball player in the best, most-fun-way-too-watch possible.

It was a star. My fellow coaches and scouts will understand. She had u0022itu0022 the day that I saw her. She showed off everything you want to see. IQ? Check. High-pointing rebounds, rather than just relying on height? Check. Oh, she can step out and hit the three, too? CHECK! This kid is a baller and still just a 2026 with, likely, some room to grow.

At least their team is full of them according to my notes. Clara is, yet another, very high basketball-IQ player. She can jump out of the gym and is max effort all game long. I know it isn't good to compare players who are technically in high school at the same time, but I mean, when it's one of the best players in the state... I wrote down that she reminds me of [player_tooltip player_id='318146' first='Jill' last='Twiehaus'] who is committed to Rice.

She's a 5'10u0022 guard with an impossibly high release and a quick stroke. Need her to defend? Sure. She's got quick feet and won't get bodied down low.
