2027 Rankings Update: Stock Risers pt 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Nine players moved up at least 3 spots, and several made big jumps but the next update will be dropping around September, here ya go</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["855743"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667a9ac79cda7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The more I see her, the more she shows me and I take it back to my initial sighting showing how raw her talent was yet her eagerness to learn stood out. She falls into that "you won't outwork me" group and from the 5 spot, I haven't said that about too many players. She's showing something else, the potential to take over games as well as change the momentum from both ends of the court. Yes, she scores with players hanging on her in the paint, and rebounds on both ends but seeing her handle the ball after rebounding has been added, as well as scoring from the wing off the dribble. She's facing the basket for buckets and defending both in and outside the paint yet her timing to block, alter, and (or) deflect shots has, well SHOT UP</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["839220"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667a9ac79ce09"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I caught her in middle school and saw plenty of potential, I mean she was "long and athletic" which is the base and she was already standing above "the magic number" which is 6'0 yet she was raw in many aspects of her game. Yes her timing was nice and she did a good job catching the ball yet over the years, her "hands and footwork" have made her a legitimate threat inside the paint. Her timing has become way more than nice and she rebounds on both ends but her on-the-ball pressure outside the paint speaks volumes about her lateral movement improving, interior defense is also sold but that midrange is also looking good</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["834681"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667a9ac79ce52"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Made the largest jump in the rankings from #42 to cracking the Top 20 yet peep this, I anticipate her stock continuing to rise. After seeing her put on a masterful defensive display against guards heading to college, her not being afraid of any challenge stood out yet I already knew that as she's a #sizedontmatter guard and has always stepped up to the challenge so during the #HeartOfTexas she gave me more than HEART as she ran both the 1 and 2 to perfection. Her court vision in the set as well as transition was solid, she also added the stop-and-pop pull-up</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["839217"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-667a9ac79ce92"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fox recently made my <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/06/jene-carter-division-championship-tjshowcase/">Tip Sheet from the #TJShowcase </a></em></strong>and after watching her over the years, I was pleasantly surprised at her on the court progression yet after all, she's long and athletic, did I mention that was the base earlier? No, I didn't and she's standing at "the magic number" so this is where the intangibles come in to separate players in that profile. She can handle the ball, and watching her rebound and go coast to score or dish was nice yet she also showed she could pull up and drop the 3 ball yet in the set, she elevates to drop the jumper or score over players around the basket. Her first step is nice as she attacks and finishes after contact, she plays solid defense and also plays the passing lane </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
