2028 Guards Coach JVick Watch List: Get to know the names

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Let's look at 7 point guard combos that I believe will have breakout seasons and will be on people list by the end of the season. All earned valuable minutes last season at the varsity level but may be asked to step up their game this season due to graduation. Check them out and give them a follow. If you think I missed, you hit me up with a DM or highlight. X @coachjvick1 or on IG @coach_jvick good luck this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1104733"],"_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-68fee582cca6b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A returner from last season's team that will be asked to step up this season as the primary ball handler as last season point guard moved on to play at the D1 level. The combo guard has the outside shooting ability to move over to the 2 post as well. A high IQ as expected being he coaches daughter whose dad played at the D1 level himself.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A player to watch this season as mentioned Kinley will be expected to pick up a heavier load of work this year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1233102"],"_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-68fee582ccb18"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Listed as a combo guard but what I saw was a pure shooter at the PGH Expo this past summer. Player that moves without the ball finding the gaps for the kickouts. Good ballhandler in the open floor that looks to push the tempo with the up the court pass. Nice patience in the half court sets waiting for the development making good decisions taking what the defense gives her. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Young talented players like Addison to go along with some tough veteran players I believe make Bartlesville a team to watch out for in Class 6A.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1255145"],"_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-68fee582ccbb6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A nice combo guard that returns after a strong freshman for the Lady Jackets. I got the opportunity to watch Josi play twice this summer. Once at Vinita Team Camp and the other at the Expo. Both times was impressed with her ability to score. High percentage shooter from beyond the 3-point line. A tough shooter off the dribble that forces you to go over all ball screens.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The up-tempo style that the Lady Jackets play combo with Josi style of play is a perfect fit. If you do not know the name mark it down because she will have a breakout season for Fairview</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1304586"],"_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-68fee582ccc3c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Quick point guard that if you had to compare to something I would say a spark plug. Plays with a ton of energy on both ends of the court. Nice outside shot to go with a solid mid-range game allows to keep the defender guessing. Understands how to use footwork in the paint to avoid the blocks with a smooth step through. She also has a nice floater on the drive allowing her to finish those tough drives at the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2028 guard will be asked to carry most of the ball handling for the Lady Lions as they look to rebuild under a new coach.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["992464"],"_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-68fee582cccc0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A very physical point guard that continued to develop her game every time I had the opportunity to watch her play this summer. Excellent rebounding that is strong in the paint area. The strength she plays with, and the shooting ability allows her to be versatile enough to play the 1-2 shot</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Lady Rams return to a veteran squad and play like Maddi adding to the depth they will need to make a run for the Gold Ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1104381"],"_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-68fee582ccd41"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Got the opportunity to watch Presley play several times this summer and each time walked away impressed with what she brings to the court. An all out bought in type attitude. The combo guard shoots the 3-pointer off the catch or move with a nice shooting form. Tough rebounder for a guard that can grab around 5-7 boards a game. Hard nose downhill driver that is not afraid to take on the contact for an old school 3-point play</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Presley has transferred to Caney Valley for the upcoming season. The addition of Presley will have an immediate impact on the program. Adding a very athletic guard that can score to the roster.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["897122"],"_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-68fee582ccdc3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bailey is a 2028 guard that many people may not have heard of unless you must play against her. The returning sophomore is coming off an outstanding freshman season where she averaged over 15ppg the ability to shoot the outside jumper opens driving lanes for this scoring guard. On the drives Bailey does a good job with a slide step allowing her to get to the rim without getting her shot</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Expect the scoring guard to average more points this season after a competitive season on the circuit this past summer</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
