<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Class of 2025 is full of talent, many of them already in line for a new uniform following the conclusion of their senior seasons. There are a handful of prospects left that remain unsigned though, and have a lot of talent to help a college program. Take a look at their evaluations below!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["404945"],"_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-67a8f387a6596"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brooklyn is a must-have point guard in every offense. She can create off the dribble, has excellent ball security, and possesses all of the intangibles you want in a leader. She contributes in a variety of ways as not just a dynamic scorer who can knock down shots or score off the dribble, but also as a lockdown perimeter defender and a great rebounder. A high basketball IQ, she understands when her team needs a bucket or a stop, and seems to deliver in clutch moments time and time again. A fantastic teammate, she is a vocal leader and brings energy to her entire squad with her presence on and off the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["329046"],"_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-67a8f387a65f0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jenna is a dominant force in the paint, bringing a physical style of play that allows her to control the low post on both ends of the floor. Her ability to establish deep position and use her strength makes her a nightmare for defenders, as she can seal off opponents and finish through contact with ease. Defensively, she has great timing on shot contests, making it difficult for opposing players to get clean looks near the basket. Her presence alone alters shots, forcing opponents to adjust their finishes or avoid attacking the paint altogether. Another of her most impressive attributes is her rebounding ability. She aggressively pursues the ball on both ends, using her strength and positioning to secure possessions for her team. Overall, Jenna is a high-impact post player who thrives on physicality, rim protection, and rebounding. Her presence in the pain and her ability to dominate the boards makes her a valuable asset to any team, and a rare commodity in a guard-driven basketball world.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["329050"],"_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-67a8f387a6634"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='329050' first='Maya' last='Nelson'] is the definition of a floor general, leading her team with a high basketball IQ and a high-level ability to read the defense. She has a natural feel for the game, recognizing what defenses are giving her and making smart decisions to set up her teammates for high-percentage shots. Her vision and passing ability allow her to create scoring opportunities for her team and she makes everyone around her better. On the defensive end, Maya plays with relentless hustle and grit. She is a tenacious on-ball defender, applying constant pressure and disrupting opposing ball handlers. Her anticipation and quick hands lead to steals and deflections, helping her team convert turnovers to points. One of her greatest qualities is her ability to perform in clutch moments. Whether it's knocking down a big three, sinking free throws under pressure, or making the right play when the game is on the line, Maya excels in the situational part of the game. Her confidence and composure make her a go-to player when her team needs her most.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["916975"],"_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-67a8f387a6671"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Julia is a versatile forward whose length, dynamic scoring ability, and defensive ability make her a major asset on both ends of the floor. Defensively, she uses her length and reach to contest shots effectively, disrupt passing lanes, and guard multiple positions. Her ability to alter shots and protect the paint, while also moving well enough to defend on the perimeter, makes her a versatile defensive presence. Offensively, Julia brings a diverse scoring skill set. She can finish at the rim with touch, knock down mid-range jumpers, and stretch the floor when needed. One of her most impressive attributes is her transition scoring ability. She runs the floor exceptionally well, creating easy buckets in fast-break situations. Whether she's finishing at the rim or finding open space in transition, she is a constant threat in up-tempo play. Overall, Julia is a well-rounded forward who impacts the game with her defensive length, versatile scoring, and ability to convert in transition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["391998"],"_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-67a8f387a66ad"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gavyn is a dynamic point guard who excels as both a playmaker and a scorer. Her ball-handling skills allow her to create scoring opportunities for herself and her teammates. She has great vision, consistently finding open teammates and making smart decisions to keep the offense flowing. As a shooter, she is a true sniper from the perimeter. Defenders can't afford to give her space, as she has deep range and a quick, confident release. Whether she's spotting up, shooting off the dribble, or knocking down clutch shots, her ability to stretch the floor makes her a strong offensive weapon. On the defensive end, she is a menace in the passing lanes, using her quick hands and instincts to get steal after steal. She has a knack for anticipating passes and disrupting ball handlers, turning defense into offense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
