She averaged 13.6 points, 5 rebounds, and had shooting splits of 51/41/76. Taylor has great size, length. She is very versatile and fundamentally sound. She also gets after it on defense and poses a inside-out scoring threat on offense. I see a breakout junior season in the works for her.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["649948"],"_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-671e28c628707"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='649948' first='Jaelyn' last='Dye'] played at a high level for [program_tooltip program_id='712592' first='Kentucky' last='Premier'] 15U on the EYBL circuit this past spring/summer. She is a lethal outside shooter with deep catch-and-shoot range. Jaelyn can play off ball as well as take on primary ball handler duties with her ability to see the floor and create for herself and others off the dribble. She put up 8.5 points and pulled down 3.6 rebounds a game her freshman season and I expect her to take a major step forward as a sophomore.

She is a force in the interior on both ends of the floor. She scores at high rate in the paint, rebounds the ball extremely well, and protects the rim. Kimberly averaged 8.4 PPG along with 6.6 RPG as a sophomore, so she is sure to increase those numbers in her junior season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1052046"],"_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-671e28c628785"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1052046' first='Elizabeth' last='Forbes'] is a name to follow at Casey County High School. Liz impacts the game on both ends of the floor with her ability to deliver on offense and buckle down on defense.

Myla is a multi-level scorer who can shoot it from three at a good clip and attack off the bounce. She has a knack for getting the free throw line and shows potential as a defender. Good things are to come for her this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
