She has come back from an injury more powerful and watching her size up defenders to attack the basket or drop the jumper is very nice because she does it smoothly and in the flow however she can flip the switch and take games completely over. Her on the ball defense is solid, so is her court vision","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["739281"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Green was au003ca href=u0022https://prepgirlshoops.com/2023/09/pgh-freshman-showcase-gamechangers/u0022u003eu003cemu003eu003cstrongu003e GAMECHANGER at the PGH Freshman Expou003c/strongu003eu003c/emu003eu003c/au003e and judging from a few videos coming across  X, there is definitely something out there to her game as she justu003cstrongu003e BRINGS ITu003c/strongu003e to the table. She's strong and uses her power on both ends of the floor, either scoring off the dribble or applying heat on the defensive end. She rebounds, on both ends and can handle the ball afterward but her seeing the floor in transition is nice, so is her stop and pop jumper yet her upside is very nice","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["764251"],"_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":"Anderson left me somewhat speechless at the u003ca href=u0022https://prepgirlshoops.com/2023/09/pgh-freshman-showcase-gamechangers/u0022u003eu003cemu003eu003cstrongu003ePGH Freshman Showcaseu003c/strongu003eu003c/emu003eu003c/au003e and then again u003ca href=u0022https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/01/eyes-on-freshmen-mansfield-spring-creek-invitational/u0022u003eu003cemu003eu003cstrongu003eSpring Creek Mansfield Invitationalu003c/strongu003eu003c/emu003eu003c/au003e recently so what I had seen earlier was not a mirage nor a figment of my imagination as she does so many things you just can't teach and one of those things is DESIRE on both ends of the floor as she understands the meaning of going hard. Her defensive pressure helps to create turnovers, she's scoring both off the dribble as well as the pull-up jumper and she sees the floor","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["839225"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Borders was another player that grabbed my attention over the holidays and her u003ca href=u0022https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/01/eyes-on-freshmen-mansfield-spring-creek-invitational/u0022u003eu003cemu003eu003cstrongu003eSpring Creek Mansfield Invitationalu003c/strongu003eu003c/emu003eu003c/au003e performance had me smiling. I had a brief conversation with her day and her last name kept ringing a bell so I used the u0022search baru0022 and voila. I spoke about a couple of things that stood out when she was in the 6th grade, one being long and athletic as well as her upside and u0022voilau0022, she is showing signs of exploding. Her first step is solid, nice body control on her finishes and watching create her shot under pressure and drop it, from mid to long-range is going to cause some problems for defenders","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["834681"],"_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":"Jordan left a u003ca href=u0022https://girlzprepreport.com/2021-duel-state-all-star-games-5th-6th-grade-tip-sheet-pt-1/u0022u003eu003cemu003eu003cstrongu003elasting first impressionu003c/strongu003eu003c/emu003eu003c/au003e and I knew what was coming because , one more time, I am a u003cstrongu003eREAL EVALUATORu003c/strongu003e and 3 years ago, I saw what was coming.
