She has a slender frame but she is earning a lot as a started right now. She can block shots and really alter the game with her presence in the paint. She does have the height and you add her wingspan and that is a big difference maker in her trajectory. She is already seeing the defense collapse on her and she will learn to use her vision and pass out when she needs to and she will continue to get better in the post and on her re-post. She can eventually turn into a turn and face big as she does have a nice soft touch on her shots. She is a player to really keep an eye on.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6595cb8adb594"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["796500"],"_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":"Wynia has a great feel for the game. She attacks the glass and knows how to track down those rebounds and she is ahead of the game when it comes to keeping that ball high away from pesky smaller guards. When she is in position she has done a good job not going over the back and just using her reach. 15 feet and in she can use her touch and she is a player that can put it on the floor a bit too.
