Every shot that went up she crashed the boards and followed her shot, put a body on someone and releases down the floor quickly. Excellent ball handling skills, she protects the ball even when under pressure. She has a strong help side on the defensive end and can get a lot of steals that turn into two points on the other end.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["887013"],"_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-67f53696b8d5a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She's so strong with the ball, when she attacks the rim it's hard to stop her because of her strength. She handles the ball very well and attacks the gaps of the defense and when she has an open lane she's going for it. When she is being double teamed on a press breaker, she keeps her composure and doesn't turn the ball over. Great court vision and knows how to put the ball through the hoop.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1228985"],"_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-67f53696b8dc8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Every opportunity she has to take the ball coast to coast she's going to do just that while taking care of the basketball. If she misses a shot, she gets back on the other end to clean things up, very confident player with a high IQ for the game. She can get to the free-throw line and knock down some extra points along with a stop and pop shot. She can let the rock fly from beyond the three-point land but loves scoring in the paint.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["889280"],"_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-67f53696b8e2c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This kid can just take care of the basketball and is a great floor leader. She uses her speed and ball handling skills to get around tight defenses to score, she can take the ball to the rim without hesitation and can score coast to coast. I love her style of play; she lets the game come to her and she takes off after that! Quick hands and reactions to get a lot of steals. Very energetic and has passion for the game. Can let the rock fly from the three-point line and has a nice shot fake to get past her defender.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1220474"],"_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-67f53696b8e8c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I watched her for just a few minutes, and I was so impressed with her game. She knows when to attack the rim and can score pretty much anywhere on the floor. She keeps the floor spread out on fastbreaks and pushes the ball in transition, she gets in the passing lanes and battles for rebounds and most of the time she comes on top of them. Long and has tons of athleticism. Always has her body ready to shoot and never stands in one spot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["888372"],"_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-67f53696b8ed3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She doesn't let her size get in the way of her rebounding and getting inside the paint, when she's driving to the rim if she doesn't have a good shot, she can dish it to her teammate to score. She comes off hard set screens with great court vision as she pushes the ball up the floor. Always communicating with her teammates and isn't a selfish player. She knows where to be on the floor and doesn't take a play off.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
