She is good off the pick and roll game and can score it multiple ways. She will post up inside, step out and hit the three and score with runners and floaters down the lane using her stronger frame.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1181913' first='Meekah' last='Nunez'] Apollo (Locked in Elite 17)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A long power forward is very fluid in space. She will rebound and block or alter shots. The lefty is very efficient around the basket and takes long strides to get to the basket. She will grab out of area rebounds and score on put backs.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1250577,"width":"298px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/user-uploads/IMG_0330-crop-3032x1991-1748134592.jpg?w=800" alt="" class="wp-image-1250577" style="width:298px;height:auto" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">A newcomer for me personally, seems to be just scratching the surface on how good she can be.</figcaption></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='754708' first='Azalee' last='Alvarado-Tellez'] (Locked in Elite 17)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A point forward or combo guard with some size has really good pace and feel. She had a few needle threaders in the game I viewed as one of the best passers on the day. She can hit the three off the catch and hesitates well to get downhill.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1250572,"width":"294px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/user-uploads/IMG_0334-crop-2944x1933-1748134514.jpg?w=800" alt="" class="wp-image-1250572" style="width:294px;height:auto" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Tellez is a versatile player who affects winning. </figcaption></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='971358' first='Nelly' last='Walker'] Kellis (Locked in Elite 16)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A walking bucket can score from all three levels. She is fast and shifty with the ball and will score with off the dribble and off the catch threes, blow by's to the basket and gets to the free throw line.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1233353' first='Tahjie' last='Freeman'] North (Locked in Elite 16)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A point forward with real size and game. She can be a lead guard with good feel and pace. She will score with euros down the lane and can impressively hit the step back three and then will take you inside with advanced post footwork. She has a very balanced game for an incoming freshman.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='530989' first='Tysyn' last='Johnson'] Valley Vista (Desert Dream Elite 17)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A blur in the open court is a pure point guard. She gets downhill with her&nbsp;super speed to the basket. She has next level court vision with great timing. She will pick some pockets with her quick feet and hands. She is a capable three point shooter with range and uses a floater game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1250582,"width":"334px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/user-uploads/IMG_0320-crop-2976x1954-1748134842.jpg?w=800" alt="" class="wp-image-1250582" style="width:334px;height:auto" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Not many in AZ are faster then Johnson to go along with her pinpoint passing.</figcaption></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='663052' first='Savannah' last='Tobias'] Mingus (Desert Dream Elite 17)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A skilled, high motored power forward scores in bunches with offensive rebound put backs. She is quick in the passing lanes to collect steals and outlets the ball well. She will close out to shooters and will step out and shoot the three showing a rounded inside-out game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='749674' first='Braya' last='Neal-Tiffany'] Valley Vista (Desert Dream Elite 17)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A skilled scoring lead guard who can fill it up. She runs the floor for transition points, gets to the basket with a tighter handle and has a nice burst of speed. She is also very controlled and smart with the ball.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='754856' first='Jayla' last='Freeman'] Higley (Desert Dream Elite 17)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A highly confident scoring lead guard can pour in points. She will score with off the dribble or off the catch threes and can rattle them in. She likes the mid-range game and is also a good passer. She also has quick hands in the passing lanes.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='892625' first='Natalie' last='Yanes'] Valley Vista (Desert Dream Elite 17)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An undersized point guard is a natural scorer. She can hit the three off the catch and actually handles contact well and will convert the “and-1”. She moves the ball like you should and is ready to fire away.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='845258' first='Ellie' last='Phillips'] Valley Christian (SAVI Sky 17)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A very quick and fast scoring lead guard. She is another undersized guard but is a good passer and she is a pest on the ball with her quick hands and feet. She will hit the three with range and blow past her defenders.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='659945' first='Maci' last='Kerns'] Higley (SAVI Sky 17)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A skilled guard who plays on or off the ball. She will score with catch threes and she is a good passer with some advanced feel. She competes on defense and does not mind coming in to score or making the play.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='660230' first='Michelle' last='Kogbara'] Peoria (Locked in Elite 17)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A very strong undersized power forward is a glass cleaner. She seems to grab every rebound in and out of her area. She carves out space and will score on put backs or get to the free throw line.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='992602' first='Mackenzie' last='Fields'] Horizon (Locked in Elite 16)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A wing forward who can score. She uses a polished floater game and smartly plays off of two feet. She will rise up from mid-range and moves the ball like you should to open teammates.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
