She made a no-look assist on a drive and quick play, while finishing strong at the rim many times inside. Izzy is a bulldog guard who has the tenacity and athleticism to play at the next level.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":873329,"_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"Jennaya Decker","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"12125","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Three Rivers","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003eJennaya Decker u003c/strongu003eexcelled at the Siena Heights prospect camp today. She is built like a tank and drove with authority to the basket, finishing multiple contested shots with control in traffic. Jennaya has a motor and used a speedy burst to beat defenders off the dribble and attack in transition. She used an impressive eurostep scoop at full speed to finish off the glass and showed her range knocking down a wing 3. Jennaya is an outstanding softball and basketball prospect from Three Rivers that I was excited to see play for the first time today.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["616580"],"_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='616580' first='Karlie' last='Kimerer'] put on a show at the Siena Heights prospect camp today.

Karlie used the crossover effectively to hit a smooth step back 3 and again to burst downhill through the defense. She has the shifty quickness, control, and 3 point shooting precision to be an excellent next level guard.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["502310"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='502310' first='Magnolia' last='Cumming'] had the green light shooting today at the Siena Heights prospect camp.

She finished countless put backs inside off of passes and offensive rebounds. Kara defends well in help or on the ball in the low post, controlling her body to contest shots without fouling. She has an efficient mid-range jumper and presents herself for entry passes when sealing or cutting through the paint. Kara is a forward all coaches should be watching for this travel season.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["854681"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='854681' first='Naveah' last='Vasquez'] is a gritty guard from East Lansing who performed well at the Siena Heights prospect camp today. She used her quickness and crossovers to beat defenders downhill for layups. Naveah knocked down a smooth wing 3 in transition and played with a relentless effort saving a loose ball going out of bounds. Her defining moment was when she chased down a post player driving on a breakaway and leaped fearlessly to attempt a block ending with both girls on the floor. Every coach enjoys competitors who play with that kind of passion and determination.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["754242"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='754242' first='Emily' last='Cates'] is a guard from Potterville who showcased a variety of skills at the Siena Heights prospect camp today.

Ellie impressed me with her polite, friendly, and confident charisma during brief conversation.
