<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Physical post presence who excels at finishing through contact. Consistently establishes deep position with strong seals.

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Fierce on-ball defender who brings intensity on every possession. Explosive in transition with a knack for finishing. Shifty handle allows her to create off the dribble, and she leverages her physicality to post up and score over smaller guards.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Dynamic one-on-one scorer who generates instant offense. Excelled as a downhill finisher and knocked down shots from beyond the arc throughout the tournament. High-level playmaker and distributor with great vision, especially in pick-and-roll situations. Lockdown perimeter defender who brings intensity on both ends.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">A true two-way talent who impacts the game on both ends. Offensively, she scores at all three levels and creates efficiently off the bounce. Defensively, she's active and disruptive, using her length to contest shots and generate deflections.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">One of Louisiana's most intriguing prospects. At 6'1” with a long wingspan and elite athleticism, she's a matchup nightmare on both ends. A versatile wing with a confident handle, Bell showed the ability to finish at the rim and stretch the floor with the three. Defensively, she was dominant — recording 8 blocks in a single game and consistently altering shots with her length and timing.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Proved why she's among Louisiana's top scoring threats. A knockdown shooter from three with a smooth, reliable midrange game. Uses her length effectively on the defensive end to disrupt passing lanes and generate turnovers. Came up clutch in the Aqua Championship, hitting the game-winning bucket to seal the win.</p>
