Great moves around the rim and she's a playmaker who is able to create her shots well. High basketball IQ with the ability to contribute at both ends of the floor. She could score in all three phases of the game!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["861178"],"_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-68ed618244a95"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She is such a fun player to watch with the basketball in her hands, she shows many different styles of play. She can play fast, push tempo and score in transition. Also in a half court offense she moves well can cut to the rim and finish. Has excellent range and can shake and bake her opponent. She's also a solid defender, can force mistakes and take advantage of them. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["861204"],"_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-68ed62ef30a86"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kenna has dealt with a lot of adversity in the off-season and in the spring, but if she is back and fully healthy, she is definitely a major impact player in her conference and on her team. I expect Kenna to be a key part with her ability to not only score from the perimeter, but she is also an excellent facilitator, good court vision and a high IQ.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["766485"],"_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-68ed64fc44679"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lauren is a human playmaker! Defensively, she has such quick hands and anticipates the game well that she's able to force mistakes which often leads to points for her squad. She can run in transition, catch and score at the rim or distribute the ball. She has excellent court vision and a very strong aggressive style play. She plays with a high motor and her game continues to rise!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["538309"],"_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-68ed665c36a71"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Defensively, Rivers is a huge factor for her teams success. She does a great job anticipating the game in advance, and she has seen her game grow from her freshman season into her upcoming senior year. She's a floor leader with excellent court vision and the ability to make a huge difference for her team. Solid with both hands, good handles and a frame that can handle the physical play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

Today a look at some of the combo guards in the 26 and 27 classes that are currently on the watchlist that have a chance to improve throughout the upcoming season. Keep an eye on these sleepers as they take the floor this winter!
