<p>As we head toward the end of the Live Period and look ahead toward the next season and recruitment cycle, it's a great time to highlight players around the state making noise for one reason or another. As I review notes from various events, live streams and more its incredible to see the amount of talent in California. Featured are 5 prospects having a noteworthy summer; some we've featured before and see growth + some new faces making waves!</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Emmi had a stock rising summer continuing to show her ability to lead at the PG position with her pace, IQ and decision making. Emmi controls the flow of the game well + does a great job locating shooters and finding hot hands. 3Ball + pull up show increased consistency. Continues to find unique ways to get her shot off, plays off 2 feet and on balance at all times. Limits her mistakes, even in the more chaotic AAU environment.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Kiera has had a breakout summer competing against high level and often older competition. Multi level scorer that's shown the ability to light up the stat sheet. Stretch forward that's dangerous from behind the arc in pick and pop action and can put the ball on the floor and score in traffic at the rim. Hands on the move and touch around the rim continue to improve. 2027 to keep an eye on! </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Olivia is a crafty gritty quick guard with fast feet and active hands. Works hard on the ball + has a knack for creating deflections and steals. Reads passing lanes and jumps passes at a very efficient rate. Unselfish guard that looks to make the right pass. Rotates shot ready + shoots with confidence. High ceiling as her ability to attack and create off the bounce continues to develop. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Lauren had a phenomenal Live period showing on larger stage her ability to not only score, but remain poised battling pressure and double teams. High high level shooter from behind the arc with a super quick release. Constantly hunting her shot + doesn't often let a miss impact the next offensive possession. Floater continues to show increase consistency. Did a great job not forcing possessions + knowing when to create.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Shooter alert. Jasmine is a threat from range with the ability to get hot. Rhythm shooter a PG should know to find again if she hits one. Sets her feet well + is consistently shot ready. Rebounding guard that will start the break. Moves well laterally. 3 and D potential at the next level. </p>
