She had some really good moves to the basket and in time she will be a solid finisher and energy giver when she is in the game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='789122' first='Merceius' last='Mili'] || [program_tooltip program_id='772857' first='Utah' last='Lady Prospects 3SSB'] ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mili has next level skills and her length on the floor is really a problem. She is a player that is relentless and her mobility on both ends impactthe game because she can go off the bounce and she attacks the rim and the glass on both ends of the floor. When her outside jumper starts to fall she is going to be a big time problem as she will be able to mix things up with her attacks. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='788225' first='Baylee' last='Lowder'] || [program_tooltip program_id='715184' first='Utah' last='Summit'] 17U ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lowder is a do it all guard out there as she can be the lead guard running the PG or play a forward when she needs to. She was making some great reads and finsing open p layers and when she was attacking the rim she was finishing very well and using that athletic ability. She is tuff at the top of that trapping 1-2-2 that they run. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>16U</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Pippa Gibb || [program_tooltip program_id='772857' first='Utah' last='Lady Prospects 3SSB'] ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gibb is well on her way to follow in her sisters footsteps as they are both D1 hoopers. She plays with a lot of poise and she also has a big time motor. the crazy thing is that she isn't even in high school yet. She is 13 or 14 and she plays at a different level knowing that. She has a great shot and if you let her set up she will burry it. Impressive to say the least. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jayla Kearns || Utah Starzz || </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This girl gets after it on the defensive end and that is what this Starzz team likes to do and they like to set that defensive tone. Her rebounding ability is off the charts and to add to that she can defend the bigs and hold her own. She has a nice handle and some of the most underrated active hands out there. She is a force!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>15U</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='796475' first='Makayla' last='Boyer'] || [program_tooltip program_id='772857' first='Utah' last='Lady Prospects 3SSB'] ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Boyer was the glue out there on the floor. She was doing a little bit of everything. She was defending at a high level and she was rebounding on both sides of the ball. She makes good passes and can hit from deep. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='884216' first='Molee' last='Allen'] || Next Level Basketball ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Swiss Army Knife for that tuff NLB squad. She has some side as a wing and she can step out and shoot the rock. She was defending well and she was also able to work a little inside and out. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
