Nyla has a sweet stroke and can score the ball in many ways. Again, Nyla is more than a shooter. She is one of the premier offensive talents in the DMV, but when she has the ball less at the next level, I could see her becoming an elite catch-and-shoot weapon. When Nyla gets to her mid-range and rises over defenders, you see her 6'2 frame.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["387060"],"_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-66b7edab2707a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">2026 guard [player_tooltip player_id='387060' first='Ainsley' last='Gibson'] is an outstanding spot-up shooter with a smooth release. She has terrific range and gets her shot off quickly. Ainsley can put the ball on the floor and is a high-IQ player. Ainsley is best playing as the off-guard and thrives with talent around her. Her shooting ability and ability to play off the ball as a guard with her size will translate to the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["302566"],"_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-66b7edab270b6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='302566' first='Jemma' last='Eleby'] is one of the only players I consider a big on this list. She may be a four at the next level, but consistently knocking down looks from three will make her a matchup problem. Jemma has the physicality you want from a big and can score in the paint. Jemma has been a riser this summer after her performances at DMVlive and other big events, and her ability to shoot the ball at her size is a big reason for this.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["748996"],"_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-66b7edab27102"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='748996' first='Avia' last='Scruggs'] is an outstanding two-way player. She is a versatile defender and is the prototypical D1 wing. Her energy, defensive instincts, and shooting at her size make her a player to watch. Avia has consistently improved her three-point shot, and it's now a strong suit of her game. Avia does her best work spotting up, and her improved shot is a reason why she has gotten more attention this summer. She is a good athlete, so teams worry about her getting to the rim, so that opens up a lot of looks for her. Avia will be a high-level shooter and is already a good off-ball player on offense while giving you excellent defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["523972"],"_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-66b7edab2713c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='523972' first='Morgan' last='Herbert'] didn't shoot the ball well in her freshmen season for Deep Creek, but I am still extremely confident in her shooting ability. Morgan is a wing right now, but she has the skill set to become a guard. Morgan is a versatile defender and a great passer. Morgan has a high IQ and does well without the ball. Her spot-up shooting is good, and Morgan can be an outstanding three-and-D player at the next level while using some of her other skills as a passer and finisher.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
