Some Excellent All-Purpose Players That I Like

Prep Hoops Missouri takes a look at a group of very good all-purpose players around the state. Some people may call them "glue" players. These talented kids can score, but they do so many other things that contribute to the success of the team. Everything with the team seems to flow better when they are on the floor.   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/04/Savannah-Stricker.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-637424" /></figure>   [player_tooltip player_id='351778' first='Savannah' last='Stricker'] (Phee Elite 17U/Olufson): The versatile 5'10" 2027 Lindenwood U. commit played a key role in Phee Elite winning its third consecutive E40 National Championship in Louisville. She was the team's top scorer during the tournament and she's impacts the game in several ways. She is an excellent passer and secondary ball handler. She can rebound and she's capable of guarding multiple positions. She brings value to any team that is serious about winning games.     ******   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2025/07/IMG_4171.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1267909" /></figure>   [player_tooltip player_id='493484' first='Tayte' last='Higgins'] ([program_tooltip program_id='712694' first='Missouri' last='Phenom'] 17U/Baggett): A 5'11" 2026 forward from Rock Bridge who just gave a commitment to Rockhurst on Wednesday. She helped the Phenom to a couple of tournament championships in July with her all-around play. She excels around the basket with her scoring, rebound and her activity. She is always in the right place to make a play. She can also handle the ball and step out and hit an open 3-pointer.     *******   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2025/07/IMG_4382.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1274694" /></figure>   [player_tooltip player_id='999531' first='London' last='Stemmons (MO Phenom 15U EYCL): A 5'9" 2028 small forward who will be entering high school at Hickman. She is a fundamentally sound player who can play multiple positions. I love her high basketball IQ. She is an excellent ball handler and passer who keeps things simple. She makes the right pass that is always on the money. She is tough on the drive and she can shoot the 3-pointer. She can also operate inside with her physical strength.   *******   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2025/07/IMG_4101.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1273896" /></figure>   [player_tooltip player_id='849004' first='Jayce' last='Green ([program_tooltip program_id='713121' first='Lady' last='Brad Beal Elite'] 16U): A 5'10" 2027 forward from University City who has a versatile skill set, but she excels with the ball in her hands at the point. She can dictate pace with the ball with her ability to drive it and distribute. She can also hit the open 3-pointer when she elects to shoot them. She also has the height to play on the back line of the defense and guard the low post.   *******   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/09/IMG_6965.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-984951" /></figure>   [player_tooltip player_id='893576' first='Lily' last='Harper'] ([program_tooltip program_id='948123' first='TC' last='Hoops'] 17U): A 5'9" 2028 forward from Jackson who is part of a big influx of young talent in the SEMO area school. She has the size and strength to play the power forward position inside, but she also handles the ball and can really pass it. She really keeps things moving with her versatility. She played two years up this summer with the 17U squad. Her summer ended on a tough note as she suffered an ACL injury that will keep her from playing her sophomore season. But keep and eye on her in the future.   ********       <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2025/07/IMG_4616.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1275068" /></figure>   Addison Dewilde ([program_tooltip program_id='712597' first='Knights' last='Basketball Academy'] 14U): A 5'10" 2029 small forward who impressed me with her overall versatility. She works well in concert with her teammates in the low post as she can work the baseline off of them or at the high post in a high-low set. She can also operate as a secondary ball handler who can facilitate when she needs to. She is solid on the drive and she can hit the mid-range jumper. She can also defend effectively with her length.
