She'll probably wind up in the Top 10 once I catch up with her </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- 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":"","_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-6718d50521079"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>#17 </strong>Fox already brought so much to the table and showed me at a young age that she would create some problems for defenders. She understands how to set the defender up to score, her deceptive first step and strong finishes after contact were part of it, and so was her ability to knock down the jumper. Her range has gotten deeper, she can drop it off the screen as well as the stop and pop in transition but her court vision continues to get better </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["977502"],"_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-6718d505210de"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>#18</strong> Vanderford showed me she had elevated her game in a couple of <strong>INDIVIDUAL SHOWCASES<em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/05/have-you-seen-her-part-1/"> see evaluation here</a></em></strong> and <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/08/day-1-yop-performers-txinvitationalshowcase/">see evaluation here</a></em></strong> which was great since I missed her all of the club season. Her steady improvement coupled with her size and skillset will keep her in the mix and watching her score around the basket, off the dribble as well as from outside will attract next-level attention, especially since she rebounds and handles the ball afterward </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["874881"],"_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-6718d5052115e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>#19</strong> Howard made <strong>@GoCoachMo SHOOTERS Tip Sheet</strong> from a <strong>Prep Girls Hoop </strong>event back in<strong> May</strong> <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/05/duel-dynasty-14u-all-tournament-best-shooters/">see evaluation here</a></em></strong><span style="margin: 0px;padding: 0px"><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/05/duel-dynasty-14u-all-tournament-best-shooters/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em><strong> </strong></em></a></span>and I had a chance to catch her not once <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/08/2028-starting-new-chapter-whosnxt-pt-1-2/">see evaluation here</a></em></strong> but twice,<em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/08/2028-watch-pt-1txinvitationalshowcase/"> <strong>see evaluation here</strong></a></em> back to back weekends. She has a very high ceiling because not only can she shoot from outside, but she mixes it up using the step back to drop the jumper but also handled the ball in the open court after rebounding to drop the "stop and pop"<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["935789"],"_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-6718d505211c4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>#20</strong> Reed tickled me at the<strong> PGH Freshman Showcase</strong> saying she wasn't satisfied with her performance and I told her you're doing fine yet hearing her say that told me a lot as she wants to continue to elevate her game. I mentioned she went AFTA everything off the rim, on both ends, and scored around the basket <span style="margin: 0px;padding: 0px">in various ways, hands, a</span>nd footwork included<strong>. See evaluation here: </strong>She's so active on the defensive end, guarding her man in and outside the paint and playing the passing lane. <strong>@GoCoachMo</strong> got a great look at her at the <strong>Showcase</strong> during the <strong>"3 on 3" </strong>games <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/09/coach-mos-top-performers-pgh-freshman-texas/">see evaluation here </a></em></strong><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

This rounds out the Top 20 and I'll continue to go over the whole list of 40 as well as those who are in the queue. AGAIN, if you have any questions regarding this, feel free to reach out to ME and you will receive a LOGICAL response that boils down to I HAVE TO SEE YOU and YOU HAVE TO SHOW ME on the court and you can do that by knowing where I am
