She played so hard the entire time she was on the court during the Reform Sports League. She averaged over 19 points per game last high school season and I can see how. She is quick and explosive with the ball. She has deep 3 range and very good at creating for herself to score mid range and at the basket.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>2028 Class</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Mikaila Evans","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12124","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Hutchison","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69002640028f8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><br>Energetic Forward - She played with great  energy during the Reform Sports League. High Motor is an understatement. She understands rebounding out of area very well because she comes from out of nowhere to get boards. She is 6'1+ by my eye test. She is very long and uses her length to block shots. She can score on the block and beyond. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1154969"],"_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-6900264002993"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><br>When a player plays in EVERY league in the city, she loves the game. She played on Tuesday and Wednesday nights and twice on Saturdays. AND she brought it every time she was on the floor. I typically use the word versatile to describe a forward. Yet, Caidyn is a very versatile guard. She can run point. She can play off the ball. She will get assists. She will score. She will rebound the ball. She was one of the top scorers in the Major Basketball League and led the W League in  assists with almost 3 per game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>2029 Class</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1305910"],"_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-6900264002a23"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><br>Guard/Forward. Get ready High School basketball for Cortney. My first time watching Cortney was in the Major Basketball League jamboree. She was high energy and very active. I was able to get an extended view of her in the Exposure Fall League. She played on the block. She defending guards on the perimeter. She rebounded. She got to the free throw line. She shot mid range and even showed her 3 point range. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>2030  Class</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1307588"],"_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-6900264002aaf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><br>I recently wrote about Ava in the <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2025/10/memphis-middle-school-preview/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Memphis Middle School Preview</a>.  She was that impressive that I wanted to include her in this article also. Ava is a 6'0+ stretch forward. She scored on the block and behind the 3 in the W League. She was a terror for players coming into the paint leading the W League with 3.3 blocks per game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

There is still some time before High School basketball tips off. So, I thought it would be a good opportunity to revisit some underclassmen that impressed me from the 4 Fall Leagues I attended in August and September.
