that I've been watching since she was the starting freshman PG on a REALLY GOOD Tellico Plains team two years ago.  She transfered and had to sit a year, making her one of the best kept secrets in the state.  Moore went into Smiddy and dropped 30 points vs Bradley Central with 8 threes.  She scored 30 of her teams 36 points.  And Reuter doesn't give away charity points...she earned every one.   Kid

has battled injuries all season long, and therefore we haven't heard a ton of noise from her.  Now she's a quiet kid anyway, but her game is LOUD.  She was dominant for Bradley by the end of last season, and then went on to have a tremendous summer for Alabama Souther Starz as one of the most efficient players on the EYBL circuit.  On this Bradley team, everybody has to sacrafise some stats for the good of the teamu002du002dand it seems like Coach Reuter has gotten everyone to buy into that.  I never hear rumblings about the really good Bradley kids wanting to transfer to, Walker Valley for example, so that they could average 25 a game.  Instead, they are all just content to possibly win 3 straight state titles.u003cbru003eu003cbru003eEnter Ware...plagued by injuries this year but now rounding into full form.  With [player_tooltip player_id='816774' first='Avery' last='Brewer'] out with an injury (all MRI results were good, I don't know the time table of her return), Ware now will have a chance to get re-accustomed to playing with the ball in her hands more.  Ware had 13 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals.  There is a reason you haven't heard much from Ware....but

has bad to pickup more ball handling responsibilities with recent injuries, and she's been steady as every.  My big questions for Bradley coming into the season wasu002du002dwho will be the 5th starter.  Wilcox has answered the bell, and some.  She's been a defensive menace all seasonu002du002dand defense is the backbone of what makes Bradley so consistently good.  Secondly, where as I thought they definitely needed a knock down shooter in that 5th starter spot, Wilcox is more of a slasher, but has figured out how to make it work attacking long closeouts with this group.  Really underrated player in my opinion.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["636390"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"In

scoring with 18 points and three made threes.  Flores is a strong bodied guard that can get to her spots, size to score in the pain off one or two feet, initiates contact, knock down three point
