Film Room: Productive 2026s

Here's a look at several rising seniors who have produced at a high level over the years and are poised to make serious noise next season.    Anaysia can play both on and off the ball and be equally effective. She brings infectious energy and exudes confidence every time she steps on the floor. A score-first minded guard who is naturally aggressive on offense. She's a good Iso player who can create her own shot and get one on one buckets. Defensively, she has great anticipation, and does a good job disrupting the flow of the opposing team's offense. Anaysia averaged 16 points per game for Christian County last season and turned heads throughout the AAU season competing with BMaze Elite 17U. She's primed for a big senior year.     Nora Kate averaged 15.5 points and 7 rebounds per game, helping lead the Lady Cards to a Kentucky 2A Sectional title while also reaching 1,000 career points and 500 career rebounds. She was named to the 5th Region All-Region Team. Nora Kate loves finding gaps to attack and finishes well with contact. She has a nice mid-range game and touch from the outside. A willing rebounder for a guard and is every bit of good on the defensive end. She's not too flashy just efficient and gets the job done. (Featured Image)     Unique is a small guard with a big game. Quick as a hiccup, she can get wherever she wants off the dribble. A streaky perimeter shooter who can heat up in a hurry, she displays excellent speed in transition and goes north to south in a flash. Very good perimeter defender who can stop penetration. She also plays fearless, and with a lot of heart. Unique will leave it all on the floor in her senior season.     The University of Kentucky softball commit and 2025 Gatorade Player of the Year had a stellar junior season, leading South Warren in both points (18.1) and rebounds (6.2) per game, earning 1st Team All-Region honors. A tough, athletic, and gritty guard, she gives a ridiculous amount of effort on both ends. She's a deadly shooter from deep, rebounds exceptionally well for her size, and has sharp defensive instincts, often forcing pressure and gambling for steals. Her speed in the open floor makes her a constant threat in transition. McLaine has over 1,000 career points in basketball and is the KHSAA all-time hits leader in softball, making a strong case as the best dual-sport athlete in the state.     Jaden is a high-IQ lead guard who contributes on both ends of the floor. She shoots efficiently from the field and beyond the arc, and she's a defensive pest who creates a lot of steals. She also keeps a steady head at the free-throw line, where she shot 87% last season. Already holds several college offers.
