She's an athletic guard who uses her athleticism on both ends but her explosiveness and being under control has risen. She scored off the dribble, dropped the jumper, and saw the floor but her "on the ball" pressure needs to be mentioned as well</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["890449"],"_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-67d16e2dd2d86"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#69 (Up from #76)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Phoenix grabbed my attention when she lived in Houston yet I lost track of her but reconnecting at last season's #Super64 showed me her growth on the court <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/07/2025-26-opening-day-standouts-super64/">see evaluation here </a></em></strong>I had an updated look with her high school team and watched the havoc she created defensively was huge but she also did a good job attacking and finishing strongly after contact </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["648988"],"_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-67d16e2dd2dc4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>#71(Up from #113)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gross has made tremendous strides and jumped 42 spots after catching her at a couple of <strong>Nike Houston Pro Skills </strong>tryouts. Here's the deal, she stands above "the magic number" but the magic is she's scoring more fluidly around the basket, hands and footwork have jumped and so has her midrange jumper.
