She has the slight HEZ to attack and score, or she can give a little boost to blow by defenders to score. She stays under control, her court vision is solid plus she does a good job defending in the set as well as baseline to baseline. She understands positioning to rebound, scores around the basket, putbacks included, and knocks it down from mid to long-range</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1230878"],"_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-68efec7c5268c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mayberry is a<strong> "long and athletic" </strong>guard, and that happens to also be the base.
