Consistent when she gets a dish from her teammates off the pass. Capable of working through significant contact and doing so with either hand at the rim. Good rebounder, she does a good of getting extra possessions for her team. Still a raw player that has all the tools and should get better this high school season!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1307121"],"_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-68cd7af3b594b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A steady guard who makes the players around her better.

A strong player already with a good frame. She can play all three positions on the perimeter. High IQ player that can start the fastbreak off the defensive board, or can run the show from the point guard position. Same attributes on defense that is a good chest piece to have on any team!<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1309226"],"_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-68cd7af3b59fd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A very strong player that is very versatile she can play the power forward but she projects at the level as a small forward.She does a nice job of holding her line and embracing contact in any position she's playing. Has solid length and athleticism, still a little raw on the wing but she is crafty and has a good self awareness whatever position she's playing. A really good prospect player that will have more of a scoring role this upcoming high school season!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1227194"],"_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-68cd7af3b5a5d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kaiyn has been putting in work this past season! Good size and athleticism, she can also get all the way to the rim and knock down shots. She handles the ball well a good inside out force that can shoot in traffic. A crafty scorer who can score in the interior and play multiple positions. A very intriguing prospect that is also a good passer!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
