PG’s Who Make Plays

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>My mission today is simple: give you PG's to see at upcoming events and fall leagues who will sling the ball all over the court! Here's a list of distributors who will have you thinking their last name is Stockton.

She competed up on the 2026 u003ca href=u0022https://x.com/MImysticsu0022u003eMysticsu003c/au003e NE2K wearing #20. At a recent scrimmage she displayed dynamic traits that could put her in a lead role right away on Varsity. As she handles the ball her eyes read the defense, scanning for open passing lanes. If a lane opens for her to drive, she attacks with purpose and finishes under control at the rim (high finish). She works off of ball screens considerably well, keeping her eyes up, and utilizes the retreat dribble to create space for herself and teammates. Mack has a fluid release on her shots from a balanced stance and will drain a 3 in the defender's face if they play off.

Gabby is an outstanding ball handler who creates separation and plays off the dribble. She delivers passes to open teammates very well, and will maintain awareness of teammates spotting up as she drives. Gabby is a knockdown shooter and never stops being a threat to score with her 3 point range. Gabby has the courage to get downhill and finish through contact around the rim, she will also take a charge. Gabby communicates with her hands and voice on the court: she plays with passion. If you fail her on a shoot just give her team two points because she shoots 87.63% from the charity stripe! Gabby is a top point guard in the state and as a 2026, the sky is the limit! She is someone you will want to find this fall before we hit the winter season!

Her low and controlled dribble on top of how quick and elusive she is, makes her a nightmare to match up with as a coach. Breeghan can split defenders and utilize dribble techniques necessary to beat a press without help, your pressure will most likely lead to a reaching foul. Her downhill instincts are a perfect fit for the dribble drive awesome, her getaway steps are explosive and quick. She moves the defender and if you overplay her in a direction she will attack the paint like a tailback. Breeghan rebounds well and applies immense pressure on the ball when defending: her lateral movement and centered balance stand out. As soon as she touches the ball in the back court she is off to the races and will make you stop her or she's taking it all the way.

She has u0022Deepu0022 range and can pull up into a rhythmic shot out near the volleyball line if you're playing off. Raegan uses her tools of the jab steps, step back, and sweep to create separation and has a very natural pull up game. She finishes off of two feet very well around the paint and will not avoid contact. Her balance and defensive positioning make her a good on ball defender, she's someone teammates look to on the court to make plays and she delivers. Her strength and explosiveness make her a difficult matchup at the guard position.

Anna's communication on defense is ever present whether it's early or late in the game, you watch her run up and down the court wondering if she will ever get tired or come out of the game: she rarely does. She uses the push-out dribble masterfully to create transition scoring and tracks the ball like a hawk. Anna has the strength the grab a steal and outlet it two handed to sprinting teammates. She plays downhill and attacks her opponent scanning the floor for open teammates. Her finishing footwork and soft hands in addition to her pull-up game make her a headache for defenses: she will knock down the open three. Anna pushes the ball steadily up the floor and has the ability/confidence to take her defender off the dribble. She gets downhill so quickly from the perimeter, that by the time help gets there she's on the line shooting two. You'll definitely want to keep her on your radar heading into the fall season.

She calmly reads the defense, takes what they give her, and makes the right reads. Her body positioning as she dribbles the ball is textbook: shielding defenders and continuing to attack space. Ella uses her body, footwork, and big steps to create separation for shots and passes that most players would not have. She continually gets to the rim and free throw line, using an attack and stutter. She has an excellent pull-up game and the range to make three's off the dribble or spotting up. Her strength is creating offense by driving downhill for herself and post players.
