Players to Watch: PGH Freshmen Showcase Preview 

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I've talked about the 2028 class a handful of times over the past couple of months. Here are some players at the PGH Freshmen showcase that I haven't had the chance to write about over the last few months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["935931"],"_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-66d2357b48561"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Skyline guard [player_tooltip player_id='935931' first='Camryn' last='Logan'] is a player to watch this weekend. She can play three positions and excels as a two-guard. Camryn is a good driver and a great spot-up shooter. She has good size playing either guard position, and she is strong and athletic. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":[968951],"_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-66d2357b485d3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jozi McDuffie has everything you want out of a PG at this age. She has a high IQ, has good size, and is very skilled. She can score the ball consistently and get her teammates good looks. Jozi is a great finisher and uses her athleticism and length to finish through contact. She can knock down open shots and is a plus defender. Jozi is one of the premier talents at this event and one to watch. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["877376"],"_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-66d2357b4861f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='877376' first='Saige' last='Oliver'] is an exciting talent at the guard position. She has terrific length and is a complete offensive player. Saige is an excellent spot-up shooter and she is a great driver. She does a good job in transition and keeps her head up to find her teammates. She is a solid defender and after watching her a little bit for team takeover, I am sure she will be a force shortly. This weekend will be a great opportunity to leave this summer in a great spot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["962762"],"_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-66d2357b48660"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gainesville always seems to have productive underclassmen and one that I could see being a contributor this year is [player_tooltip player_id='962762' first='Addyson' last='Lawhorne']. Addyson is a smart player who does almost everything well. Addyson can play as a three or an off-ball guard. She is a plus defender and is always in the right spot offensively. Addyson has had a solid summer so this will be another chance to raise her stock.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["946894"],"_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-66d2357b486ab"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Josiah Smalls is one of the best players you will see this weekend. I watched her a little bit at DMVlive but wished I had the opportunity to catch more of her games for McDonough. Josiah is a knockdown shooter and a fierce competitor. She can play either guard position but will be much more of a 1. She has a nice handle and is a good facilitator. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["912142"],"_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-66d2357b486fb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='912142' first='Amirah' last='Royal'] is a great Forward prospect who will turn a lot of heads this weekend. She has great size for someone just entering high school. She has a nice post-game and solid footwork. She uses her strength well and has nice touch. Amirah can get rebounds to push the ball and she does it with total control. Amirah has a mix of size and skill you don't always see at this age and she is a terrific prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["975071"],"_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-66d2357b4873b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gabby Hall has had a great summer and after playing JV as an 8th grader, I could see her being a contributor for Miller soon. Gabby is a great shooter, especially when she is spotting up, and she has a quick release. Gabby finishes well with either hand and is a solid passer. There isn't a hole in Gabby's game yet and she is a player to watch this weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
