PGH Victory Region Recap- 16U Standouts Part 3

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As we continue to look at some of the 16U players who caught my attention on the circuit this season, today we look at a few I saw in Louisville and at the PGH Victory Finals in Indy. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Brooklyn White, Central KY Storm</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brooklyn does a nice job playing under control with good footwork. She is a physical kid who isn't afraid of playing against a physical player, able to play through contact. Can score in a variety of ways, nice touch around the rim, good handles, she can catch-and-shoot well from the perimeter. <em>(feature photo above)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='748693' first='London' last='Johnson'], United Basketball Family 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Her stock continues to increase with a very strong summer. Got to see her in Kentucky and really liked her frame and ability to get into the passing lanes, using her length and athleticism. Tough to throw over top, and loves to play in transition, can push tempo and turn opportunities into points. Just received an offer to Tennessee-Chattanooga. Getting to another level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Emilee Neese, [program_tooltip program_id='790618' first='Arctic' last='Rush'] 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":657515,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/05/tempImageTImLPh-rotated.jpg?w=768" alt="" class="wp-image-657515" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>She is really a solid all-around guard with a good upside and a solid skillset. She is a fundamental player and has a good basketball IQ, moving well and possesses good handles. Her long athletic frame allows her to guard multiple positions and I really liked the way she bounces off of screens and can get to the rim. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1049976' first='Riley' last='Reichert'], [program_tooltip program_id='715756' first='Rice' last='Basketball Academy']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":691033,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/07/tempImagew04QD7-rotated.jpg?w=768" alt="" class="wp-image-691033" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This young lady is deadly from the perimeter! She can light up the net from the perimeter as she has a smooth and consistent shot from deep range. She displayed a very good basketball IQ and does a good job on the defensive end of the floor. Able to switch and is active on the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='716680' first='Avery' last='Van Dellen'], [program_tooltip program_id='713024' first='Michigan' last='Drive Premier']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":689538,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/07/tempImageVzoBEc-rotated.jpg?w=768" alt="" class="wp-image-689538" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the better point guards I saw in the Finals at the PAC, Avery can really push tempo and looks to create scoring chances for her team. Her court vision is elite and is a very productive leader on the court. Able to score from both the midrange and out on the perimeter, does the little things well for her team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
