2028s to Remember, to Watch | PGH Freshman TX Showcase

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>More than 50 hoopers filled the gym for #PGHFreshmanTX Showcase on September 1st. It's going to be incredibly difficult to ignore the greatness of these 2028s and they proved they're more than talented at a few things between the lines; whether it's shooting, passing, defending, or the intangibles. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["946100"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":985035,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-66de13e91bea0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Anissa is a smooth shifty guard who knows the game on a deeper level, reading 3 to 4 plays ahead of the whole. Challenged opponents find it difficult to maneuver around Sanchez as she utilizes defensive jab steps, almost requiring corrective action. The tough talented guard has a complete catalog of around the rim finishes and is a master manipulator of the basketball. Anissa's future is nothing but a flurry of possibility.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["985950"],"_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-66de13e91bf26"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Unquestionably one of the most athletic competitors at the event, Graves soared in the paint over taller, stronger players and buried several shots from baseline to mid-range. Her explosive vertical and athleticism make her as tough to guard as she is to defend. Growing in both knowledge and admiration for the game, she reminds me of a young Rylee Grays, genuine empathy regardless of uniform, and an infectious smile. Zoe Graves is a player to watch, a little goes a very long way as she possesses so many intangibles. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["926592"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-66de13e91bfad"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The young guard [player_tooltip player_id='926592' first='Isabella' last='Warner'] has been playing at a high level during club season, and it is most visible in her basketball IQ and off-ball movement. Her lengthy wingspan supports her two-way effectiveness, allowing for a lower stance on crossovers, an extended lift on form shots, and a broader reach on defense. An elite-level athlete with a rapidly rising stock.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["878613"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":990144,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-66de13e91c035"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">TThe #PGHFreshmanTX Showcase format allowed for multiple assessments of athletes, and Ja'Mya, a deceptively talented guard, shined in several pivotal moments. Johnson caused deflections and initiated the break with comfort. Ja'Mya's admirable court vision enables her to surgically slash the defense to complete half-court dimes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["886247"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-66de13e91c0cb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kamryn is as "sly as a fox," minus the devious nature. A cunning weakside defender, and constant communicator, she has beautiful help defense, causing passing lane deflections that feed teammates from a distance. Kamryn's crafty footwork helps her slip unnoticed behind defenders, as they realize and arrive just in time to see Fox secure another 2/3 on the scoreboard.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["878614"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":990148,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-66de13e91c14c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='878614' first='Lanae' last='Dallas'] delivered a dazzling performance throughout the day. Her daring, acrobatic, and almost rhythmic finishes in the paint resulted in multiple converted and +1 opportunities. At 5'9", she defends the wing and forward positions well, never shying away from tough competitors. Dallas' compelling performance included multiple turn-around short corner jumpers, fancy-foot ball-handling combinations, and elite-level finishes. With her natural gifts growing greater through the grind---another #BrightFuture prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
