She also mixed it up by dropping the jumper a variety of ways, including the "stop and pop" in transition as well as the "catch and shoot". Her "on the ball" pressure baseline to baseline was also a plus</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1263720"],"_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-685e8bf55f8c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McBride falls into that #sizedontmatter group, yet once again, it doesn't matter because she can play. Her UPS has always impressed me as she scores and rebounds over taller players, yet she does a good job using her athleticism on both ends. Her "on the ball" pressure helped create turnovers. She saw the floor and knocked down the jumper, "catch and shoot" included </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

Several players who play multiple positions showed not only "on the court" progression, but also gave me a little something extra to end the tournament. Here are some of them
