<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Champion Center was loaded with top-notch talent for Sunday's Expo and I was honored to be able to catch the action! With a pool of players like the ones I saw, it was difficult to narrow down the best of the best. Here is part 3 of that list</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["750262"],"_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-68dff0c16f089"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kendall impressed me as one of the better players that I watched. Aggressive, crafty ball handler who showcased her quickness to, not only blow by defenders, finishing in and through traffic, but also to knock down the mid to long-range jumper when left open. She Looks poised to build off a very strong Sophomore season where she made 2nd team All-Conference.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["877236"],"_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-68dff0c16f111"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Despite not being one of the taller players, Asharia was definitely one of the best rebounders that I saw. She used strong box outs and good body control to pull down several offensive rebounds that resulted in putbacks. Crafty with the ball, she also showed the ability to get to the hoop and repeatedly finish in traffic.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1319432"],"_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-68dff0c16f189"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">When I think about players that did a little bit of everything, I think of Chelinda. Tenacious rebounder who did an excellent job boxing out and starting many fast breaks with long outlet passes. When she wasn't grabbing the board, she was often leading the pack running the court for easy layups. Solid with the ball, she had no problem dribbling through traffic on the way to the basket. Max effort player that moves her feet well and never gives up on a play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["992492"],"_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-68dff0c16f26b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wherever the action was, Ellie was in the middle of it! Strong, smart all-around player who did everything well. Down low she showed a nice bag of solid post moves and was one of the better rebounders converting on several putback opportunities. She showed a nice consistent mid-range jumper and was solid taking the ball into traffic and looks very promising for a huge sophomore season!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["874389"],"_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-68dff0c16f2e4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Strong, aggressive post player that showed a nice touch around the basket, and the willingness to step outside to keep the defense honest. She really made her presence known, on defense, changing or altering several shots and was particularly impressive on one play when she chased down a fast break and blocked a shot from behind. It's easy to see why she's ranked #1 at her position with tons of room for growth.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["672176"],"_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-68e0196a4cb41"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Quick, bouncy, athletic player who was always looking for ways to create space, for her shot, resulting in multiple three-pointers each game. Confident ball handler who showed the ability to get to the basket, at will, finishing with either hand. Team first lead guard who setup her teammates with some nifty passes leading to open looks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
