The Bradley Central Bearettes you Don’t Know But Should

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bradley Central's roster is a almost unreal in its talent level. In [player_tooltip player_id='408996' first='TaTianna' last='Stovall'], [player_tooltip player_id='290719' first='Harmonie' last='Ware'], and [player_tooltip player_id='513228' first='Kimora' last='Fields'] they have 3 bonafide, high level D1s; and in [player_tooltip player_id='409074' first='Avary' last='Brewer'] they have a high D2/low D1. Their top four is one of the best collections of talent of any TN public school team in recent history.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>But, basketball teams play 5 kids. And another 2-3 kids will come off the bench. And God forbid an injury, there will be another player or two from Bradley's roster have to step up and give big minutes. So, let's get to know those kids.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='803695' first='Grace' last='Phillips']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12123","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Bradley Central","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"[program_tooltip program_id='713260' first='ETA' last='Thunder']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"If not coming off an injury, Phillips wwould likely be the 5th starter, and the 5th player in Bradley's starting lineup to be a college player (as she recently picked up an offer from Covenant).  Phillips hasn't seen a whole lot of court time in her career, but after 3 years of competing against Sloan Carpenter everyday in practice, she'll be ready to compete.  Like all Bearettes, she plays hard, competes on D, limits her turnovers, and has become a quality outside shooter.  She's worked her tail off for the past 3 years, and has earned this spot in the rotation.  High character kid with a great work ethic.  She's a steal for Covenant.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65317e00860ae"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='795480' first='Love' last='Howard']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'6u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12121","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Bradley Central","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"TN Team Flight","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Howard has nice athleticism and great defensive instincts.  She's at her best attacking the rim, or getting out in transition.  Can be a smothering on the ball defender, which Coach Reuter loves.  Will need to be able to knock down shots from 3 to earn quality minutes.  Will compete for the 6th/7th spots.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65317e0086154"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["636908"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Osborne is a very strong guard with nice ball control, and the athleticism to attack the rim and get down hill.  She's another guard (like Howard) that's at her best attacking the rim.

in AAU in middle school, and she was incredibly diverse in the positions she could play.  When I've seen her playing JV, she's shown the same skills.  As a wing, she can contribute across the board statistically.  She might be the best shooting option off the bench, and that gives her a chance to earn a big
