While they close that chapter, the class of 2025 is going through their final travel season closing their own form of a chapter. Here are some under the radar 2025s that you should make sure to see this summer.
Addison Sirianni has been playing with a team out of Tennessee this travel season showing off her ability to make plays for herself and her teammates. She has a nice shot from deep that she shows off all around the arc, and she knows how to move well without the ball to get the open look. She is constantly finding ways to get her teammates the ball, too, making sharp passes between defenders even if they are long ones up the court to increase the tempo. Her tight defense is guaranteed to lock down her opponents, too.
Highlights
Mckenzie Graves is a special ball handler who knows how to make plays all over the court. She weaves in and out of her opponents with ease getting to the rim with a nice touch off the glass. Her passes are right on target hitting her teammates’ hands as they make their moves. She’s quick laterally as well being able to handle any opponent on the defensive end.
Highlights
Amari Baldwin had a monster of a high school season consistently showing up hitting double figures in numerous statistical categories. She can certainly score creating her own plays off the dribble, and she knows how to make the smart cuts putting up her shot off the pass. Her high IQ is sure to make the right plays for herself or her teammates knowing how to read the floor, attack the gaps, and make the defensive shifts needed to get the open look.
Highlights
Samiyah Barker has a quickness that is apparent on both ends of the court. She can jump in front of passes in a flash grabbing the steal and exploding up the court for a fast break. Her ability to show off her quick handles is fun to watch as she gets to the rim for her points. She knows how to change her speed on a dime losing her defender, creating space, and making the right play whether she is putting up the shot herself or hitting her teammates for their own points.
Highlights
Devin Long has shot fakes for days that she can use at any speed on the court whether she is faking it off the pass to get the open look or she is faking the pass running full speed on a fast break. Her ability to knock down shots from deep is an asset, too, scoring on all levels. Her tenacious defense is sure to grab some steals for her team picking the pocket of her opponents.
