She has good court awareness and does a good job getting her teammates involved with her ability to distribute the rock. She was really aggressive pushing the pace and getting into the heart of the defense where she made good decisions with the rock and finding teammates for the drop-off. She has a mature floor game, plays like a coach on the floor, and does a really good job at running the offense. She has nice passing and set-up ability and keeps her playmakers happy, getting them the ball in positions to be successful.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":945354,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/PGH-Sofia-Read-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-945354" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Sofia Read </strong>(5'7/CG/'27/Cyfair Premier) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: Sofiabuckets / Cyfairpremier</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @Sofiabuckets / @Cyfairpremier</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Sofia is one of the most talented backcourt prospects at #TheBigEasyHoopFest. She does a good job balancing scoring and facilitating and can play on and off the ball. She has a really good IQ and is a smart and skilled backcourt talent who hurts opponents with her mind and skillset. She has been firing on all cylinders as she has had her talent and potential on full display. She can play anywhere on the perimeter, is a really good playmaker, and is a reliable ball-handler. Her movement without the ball and reading defenses when she is coming off screens was probably one of the most impressive components of her game. She listed the following offers in her profile: Abilene Christian University, University of the Incarnate Word, and Chaminade University.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":945355,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/PGH-Traniyah-Weston-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-945355" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Traniyah Weston </strong>(5'4/PG/'27/All Arkansas Red) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: theunrelated_hooper</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @traniyah_weston</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Traniyah is a small, dynamic guard who makes everything go for her squad. She is a score-first PG and a high-volume shot taker. She handles the ball well, and with her quickness with the rock in her hands, she can get to whatever spot on the court she desires. She has a high level competitive spirit, and sometimes, her passion for winning did not present the caliber leader she could develop into. There was some bad body language when things were not going well, but she is young and has to learn to channel her desire for winning. As mentioned, Traniyah is a score-first point guard and has the ability to put her team on her back as a bucket-getter. She has quick hands and impressive instincts on defense. She did not list any offers in her profile.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":945356,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/PGH-Ariyah-Burke-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-945356" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Ariyah Burke</strong> (5'10/SF/'25/GDT) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: _.Ariyahh</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @dethooper_jkk</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Ariyah has a good all-around game and brings a lot of energy and effort on both ends of the floor. Her impact is felt across the stat sheet, and she contributes to her team's success with her constant high level of activity in making hustle plays. She has a good physical build, and her strength is seen when she attacks off the dribble and plays through contact in the paint. She is a workhorse on defense and makes opponents work for everything they get on offense. She is a tough player who understands her abilities and does not try to play outside the scope of them. She listed the following offer in her profile: University of Fort Lauderdale.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Check Out Ariyah's Film: </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/18885098/662682eda97268bb12bf145d">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/18885098/662682eda97268bb12bf145d</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":945357,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/PGH-Kennedy-Gill-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-945357" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='900212' first='Kennedy' last='Gill'] </strong>(5'7/SG/'25/All Alabama) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: One.only.ken</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @Its_ken9</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Kennedy has been one of the most improved players in the state of Alabama over the past year. She has already been a good shooter from deep, but at the #TheBigEasyHoopfest, she showed the newfound confidence she has been playing with. She scored from all levels and confidently put the ball on the floor, and made plays. Her progression as a two-way force was on full display, and a lot has to do with her maturity. She listed the following offer in her profile: Alabama A&amp;M.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":945358,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/PGH-KaMiya-Webb-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-945358" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Ka'Miya Webb </strong>(6'1/C/'27/All Alabama) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: _exclusive.k_</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Ka'Miya is one of the brightest young prospects taking the floor here at #TheBigEasyHoopFest. She is a physically gifted big with size, length, athleticism, and mobility. Her size and length are huge factors helping her become a dominant interior force. She plays with a motor and plays hard. She is showing to be a rim protector, given her physical tools and instincts. She rebounds very well on both ends, and a lot of that simply has to do with her size and length. Offensively, she gets deep position and shows a budding offensive scoring package and skill set. She has to continue to develop her skill set away from the basket.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
