We're aware that she's skilled at shooting and driving to the basket effortlessly, and she demonstrated both during the game. Additionally, she assisted her teammates by setting screens to create openings for them and driving and dishing the ball to help them get open shots.  Butler is getting a great player and even better young lady!","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["502309"],"_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":"I really enjoy watching Thelen play.  I love how she pushes the pace and makes the pass ahead to open teammates.  She does a great job on the defensive end of the floor with her anticipation and comes away with many steals.","_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":"Averi Peot","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"12124","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"Sparta ","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"[program_tooltip program_id='713024' first='Michigan' last='Drive Premier'] 2024 PGH","_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":"Peot is a '24 that is still on the board!

She is a skilled guard who has demonstrated her ability to control the ball during transitions.  She got a defensive rebound and took it coast to coast.  She showed her athleticism with some blocks on taller players. I look forward to watching her game take off this winter.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":6,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-652053905bfde"} /-->
