<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's there last season of club ball and these 5 players are making it count! College coach row was standing room only in Bryan, Texas and these 5 standouts are a big reason for that.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>*Prep Girls Hoops class of 2026 #1 ranked [player_tooltip player_id='672683' first='Eve' last='Long'] of Kansas is the only prospect in this list not on an Adidas 3SSB roster.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["672683"],"_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-682d1e243b81d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Long will be a household name sooner than later so it's exciting to watch her live. The 3SSB circuit provides a chance to see Long go against defenders her size to really provide a glimpse of what she will look like on the next level. And even against opponents her size, she separates herself in transition, moving like a guard and consistently beating players down the court. In the half court, she stays patient on the perimeter, using a simple but effective drop step to shake defenders and finish at the rim with her length. Her blend of size, control, and agility makes her a mismatch nightmare.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["510471"],"_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-682d1e243b87e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Garcia, aka Sunshine, is a ray of light on the court for her teammates! I was impressed with her acrobatic yet controlled finishes at the rim, showing both flair and composure in traffic and understands how to use reverse finishes around the basket. She keeps teammates involved with smart reads and unselfish play. She plays tough on the ball defense without picking up unnecessary fouls. Offensively, she's a threat from the perimeter all the way to the baseline, especially with her smooth pull-up midrange game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["650368"],"_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-682d1e243b8c5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kinsey is an impressive defender. Her alert help-side defense consistently forces turnovers that turn into instant offense. With explosive quickness, she attacks the basket before defenders can react. Without the the ball in transition, she moves to the corners to spot up for threes with t urgency. After a missed shot, she immediately reposts, creating a reliable target and keeping pressure on the defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["740969"],"_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-682d1e243b906"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A true rebounding guard, Ford uses her strong physique to outmuscle opponents in the paint and secure tough boards. Her physicality sets the tone on both ends of the floor, giving her team extra possessions and a serious edge in scrappy situations. She brings a blend of strength and hustle that's hard to match at her position.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["510469"],"_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-682d1e243b946"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Simpson is the eyes and ears of her team, always communicating and staying one step ahead of the defense. Shifty and unpredictable off the pick and roll, she's a dual threat—able to break defenders down and score or thread the perfect pass to an open teammate. Her IQ and feel for the game make her a constant problem in half-court sets.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
