<p>Okay.I am super excited to dive write back in and talk about some more player evaluations. When I tell you the event at the Roses was lit! It was that plus a whole lot more. Our girls brought the juice. I am talking about the energy in the building was already live. Then add our girls hooping on their prospective courts. Man it was a sight to see for sure.</p>

<p>Let's continue on and talk about some pretty good talent I was able to witness from the Volunteer state. Look, I am going to tell you this. Ball is ball all over the country. You have good players in other states as well. But here, girls to me are just built differently. I know I may be biased (I do write for the Tennessee site), but it's just the way we go about our business. We walk/ stand tall. We play differently. I feel there we got a little bit more sustenance to our game if you know what I mean. Whatever comes to mind, and you can agree with me on this, the girls from our state will give it their all and compete from tip to the final whistle.</p>

<p>Enough small talk, here are some young ladies who really caught not only scouts eyes, but college coaches as well.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='821989' first='Havyn' last='Harris'] (So./G/ Rockvale)</strong>- Let me tell you, this girl is nice. She is playing with a lot of confidence. Love her ability to pull up in the open floor or get down hill and attack the rim. Makes timely passes, rebounds, and just brings it every time she steps on the floor. Can play either guard spot, whatever coach wants, she executes. Nice athlete who will continue to grow.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='810653' first='Debrionna' last='Jones'] (Sr./C/ Union City)</strong>- Deb is a grinder. An old fashion back to the basket/ pick and roll girl. Physical on both ends of the floor. Has great footwork, runs the floor well, defends like crazy, and simply just gets after it. She's on the boards, has a knack for getting put backs. Point is the girl finds a way to put the ball in the basket. Love her defense and her ability to create tough shots around the block. Long and rangy, this kid is an underrated prospect who will be a steal for a program.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='889914' first='Malia' last='Wilcox'] (Sr./G/ Bradley Central)</strong>- She's back after her injury and she's picking up steam. Amazing court vision. Handles the rock like a ball on a string, she was knocking down clutch shots, hitting open teammates and locking up on the defensive end. She played with a lot of energy and effort. She was flying around on the court. You could tell she wasn't taking the moment for granted. This kid is talented and once she gets back going, she is going to be a nice contributor to a loaded BC team.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='513232' first='Nya' last='Burns'](Jr./ PG/ Grace Christian Academy- Knoxville)</strong>- The real deal. The way this girl plays has college coaches taking notice. Picked up some D1 offers this past week, but this girl is on fire. Look, I love her tenacity and her ability to be just around the ball. I love when she picks up a guard the full length of the floor, making her work to get into a set. I love her ability to come off a screen, attack the paint, get a bucket whatever way. Look, this girl has game and she is super talented. Skies are the limit for this kid.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='810692' first='Kinslee' last='Inlow'] (Sr./G/ Forrest)</strong>- I am going to say it, she is a deadeye shooter. This kid given in a spot up situation, will knock down a 3 ball. Doesn't matter if a hand is up, wide open, she's confident and that ball is going to find the bottom of the net. Solid two-way player who can shoot yet, but contribute in other statistical categories as well. She plays hard and with a passion. Can space the floor and pick her spots to score. Great kid who is a tough competitor.</p>
