Let's dive right in.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1278327"],"_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-6887ba462367a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hazelton is a three level scorer who played varsity for Rye last year as an 8th grader. Can get to the basket. Shoot it from the perimeter. Nice mechanics, needs more reps and adjust her footwork. Can run the floor on the break or take it all the way herself. Hazelton has nice touch and footwork around the basket. Playing at the varsity level as an 8th grader is no small feat. I believe she will take that confidence from last year and take on a larger role on the offensive end. She can handle the ball and has good vision on the court to make difficult passes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1278302"],"_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-6887ba46236e5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><br>I don't see a lot of players like Dukes. She might be the most talented seventh grader I have ever seen. She will be an 8th grader next season and stands at 6'3. Not only that, but she can hoop. Elite handle and a three-level scorer. Think Briana Stewart. Loves to play the game and run on break. She is a force defensively and protects the rim, forcing opponents into jump shots.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Times her jumps well and knows where to be on the court to alter shots efficiently. Versatile and athletic, she can guard any position on the court and make plays. Likes to run in open court and attack. Good lateral footwork and motor. Loves to be a rim protector. Cleans up on the glass. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["967437"],"_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-6887ba4623731"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><br>Weathers is the complete package on both ends of the floor. She is quick, shifty, and has bounce. She has elite shooting mechanics and the confidence to go with it. Has the handle to beat defenders and get to the rack. She is a menace on the defensive end, loves to run in open space, and pull up for a 3 or attack to the rim. She can light it up on the stat sheet, and I expect that to continue with more reps, a larger role in the offense, and confidence. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1278277"],"_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-6887ba4623777"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>Kinsey is the real deal and just an incoming freshman. She looks like a seasoned vet on the floor, and that is scary. Elite shooting mechanics, feel for the game, and basketball IQ. She is physical, plays with a high motor, and can flat-out score. Her ability to create her shot is what sets her apart. She is shifty and can create space for herself. Elite passer and vision with a flair for threading passes. &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1278330"],"_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-6887ba46237bb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>Espindola is a pure shooter and has flawless mechanics. She has the confidence to match and excels in catch-and-shoot opportunities. She's not afraid to play physical and cleans up on the glass well. She loves to play defense, create havoc, and force turnovers, turning those into fast-break points.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
