She's slippery coming downhill while also maintaining the necessary balance to generate ideal angles for herself. The range plus the ability to pull up comfortably without regard of the defense marks a player with dangerous scoring potential.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1273716"],"_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-69412ebc3bf28"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1273716' first='Liemarie' last='Gonzalez'] (2030) | 5'4 CG | Wheeler </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After watching her in a few of the early matchups, Gonzelez has been one of the more surprising prospects so far this season. She's gotten her teammates involved, created for herself at critical points of the possession and shown a willingness to engage players defensively out on an "island". Sometimes Liemarie is even hounding guards way beyond halfcourt as she disrupts players flow up the floor. Her overall numbers on both sides aren't consistent just yet, but name an 8th grader that's playing high-level basketball whose stats are? There's no denying there's a bright future here. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1282043"],"_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-69412ebc3bf78"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1282043' first='Kaylynn' last='Bennett'] (2030) | Forward | </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A hybrid/stretch forward that's able to put up big scoring numbers while also being a dominant defender. Bennet has size, agility, strength and an even better understanding of the game than most her age. She can be useful from many areas of the floor. Kaylynn's 2-way production and influence on the game is fascinating to witness. She's been an absolute nightmare for players to matchup with. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1387107"],"_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-69412ebc3bfbe"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1387107' first='Lily' last='White'] (2029) | 5'9 CG | Dracut </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>White has been a name on the rise lately. Theres a lot to like about her and she brings so much value to the floor. Lily is willing to serve many roles for her team to be successful. She's a versatile guard that has great vision as she finds teammates behind the defense and pushes the pace to create opportunities before teams can load up on their coverage. Lily also extends defenses out with her deep range, which just opens up the court for others too. Not only that, but players guarding her must account for the fact that she's not afraid to take shots from distance if nobody has a hand up. Lily will be featured in the upcoming rankings, keep an eye out for her positioning. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1199648"],"_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-69412ebc3c003"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1199648' first='Jennifer' last='Xue'] (2029) | CG | Milton Academy </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A high-powered scoring factor that's been a very beneficial addition to Milton. Xue has looked good in her new threads, doing what she does best and confirming why she's considered one of the top players in her class. Jennifer is flat-out one of the best on the catch shooters in the region. Her shot mechanics are fluid and it doesn't matter the position she's catching the ball in, Xue quickly makes her adjustments and fires from her shot pocket. It's clear Jenniefer gets a ton of shots up just by her unwavering follow-through. There's no hesitation or wasted motion up to the release plus she gets excellent rotation on the ball even with defenders in her space. The sheer threat of her catching fire from behind the 3-point line holds a ton of gravity. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

This season hasn't disappointed thus far. There's so much action and it's produced a bunch of names to add to watchlists moving forward.
