AnnaBeth Tsai-Turton
AnnaBeth Tsai-Turton is an intriguing prospect. She can shoot the ball well and has great size. She also does great work in the paint on both ends and is a good perimeter defender for her size. Anna Beth is a player who will be a riser this summer and is one you should keep your eye on.
Reagan Edsell had some all-around monster performances this year for John Handley. Reagan is athletic and uses that when she finishes over players. She is a good shooter and can impact a game in almost any way. Reagan is a three-level scorer and always brings energy. The best thing about Reagan being on this Team Takeover squad is that she goes from playing at a small school in John Handley to now playing on a much bigger stage. She is highly ranked, but I don’t think people have seen what she brings to the court. This AAU season will give her more exposure.
Highlights
Bullis is already recognized as one of the best teams in the DMV, but I still think they aren’t close to their potential. They have so much great young talent, one of those being Kai Powell. Kai is a great two-way player, and she was a contributor for Bullis in her Sophomore season. She is a good driver and an aggressive finisher. She is a decent shooter and an all-around good player. Kai figuring it out will elevate Bullis to a new level.
Lily Deng is a really interesting player to watch for spring/summer. This will be the first chance many people have to watch her. At her size, she is raw but can develop into a special paint protector and overall player. She may be the player I will have my eye on the most.
Highlights
Jaila Lilly is a force inside. She is excellent at getting second-chance buckets and a fantastic finisher. Jaila has improved significantly over the past few years, and her work ethic must be applauded. With a player like that, you never know their ceiling, and I could see Jaila taking another leap.
Highlights
Irieanna Smoot is a player I have watched a lot this year, and I am happy that she will get more exposure this AAU season. She is an elite offensive player and a formidable defensive player as well. She is a great athlete, and stopping her in the open floor is tough. Irieanna is a great driver and a good jump shooter. Irieanna has good size for a guard and has put up monster stats for Osbourn.
