<!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Windy City Warm Up is back in Chicago during the NCAA shutdown, but that hasn't slowed the competition. With no coaches in the gym, players are locked in knowing this film could be what gets them noticed once the quiet period ends. Here are a few names that stuck out to me this morning.</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#7 Mac Irvin Fire P24</strong> - She had multiple steals and rips in the game against Example that led to easy fast break buckets, and she converted on most of them. Offensively, she showed flashes of being a strong ball handler and playmaker, setting up her teammates for easy baskets even through tough passing situations. A ton of talent.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#21 Mac Irvin Fire P24</strong> - One of the more aggressive players I watched via stream today. There was not a single possession that she did not impact in some way, and that goes for both ends of the floor. Defensively, her wingspan and energy caused all kinds of problems for Example. Even when the offense is not flowing the way she wants it to, she can easily rely on her defense to leave a mark on the game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#33 Example 2027 GUAA</strong> - One of the best players in the building and usually the best player on the court in her games. Defensively, she was a paint blanket and easily recorded two to three blocks in the early afternoon matchup against the Fire. She is more quick than fast, but once she gets moving, there is a lot of strength behind it.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["741754"],"_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-681fb674cd3ee"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Got it — here's your original wording with only grammar and spelling corrected:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Flores is slowly getting back to 100 percent, but even when she's not 100 percent, she's still one of the more competitive players in her class as well as on her program. She has a stronger frame and some athleticism to go with it. When she gets back to full strength, she will be a player that can rack up a couple offers before this summer is over.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["861138"],"_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-681fb674cd448"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Richmond's ability to shoot and the confidence behind it is going to be a major reason why colleges will take the extra time to find out about this kid. She has great length, and she uses it well on both ends of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["442381"],"_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-681fb674cd492"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Easily one of the better forwards in the state, Alli has racked up a couple more offers this summer and I truly do not see a major slowdown with that. She's showing her ability to stretch the floor in almost every game, which will be huge for college coaches to see. Stretch fours are rare in the NCAA, and she can be another solid player for a program.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
