She is Power Forward with great size who plays physical, she is strong, and has much game in the painted area. White has great footwork inside and knows how to score the ball. The Young Power Forward is one of the top 4s in the 2027 and is going to be a player we talk about for a long while on the First Coast. Get use to reading about her.

The young Reddick can pile up points in a hurry. She played on a team of Juniors and Seniors during the Summer live period and more than held her on. At the Freshman Expo, she was dominant and was easily one of the top Freshman in the room. Reddick shoots the long range with ease and accuracy, and she is even better in the open court in transition. She has the ability to score on defenders and also maneuver around them.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["804264"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='804264' first='Ya'Zuri' last='Hollie'] was another special player I saw over the summer. Hollie had good size at 5'10 and was extremely athletic. She had a great combination of power and finesse and was just a standout amongst her peers on the floor. Hollie had the ability to drive the ball to the rim, shoot it from the midrange, and play through contact.

McCreary can run the floor, rebound it, score in the paint, and even shoot the three. McCreary has the versatility to play three positions on the court and will be a rookie player to be reckoned with. She will anchor the middle of Bartram Trail's defense and put the pressure on the opponents from in the offensive paint.   One of the other special parts of McCreary's game is her ability to run the floor in the transition game.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["721486"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='721486' first='Amaya' last='Canady'] was one of the top Freshman Power Forwards I saw over the summer.
