<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Several players showed they are closing their high school careers out with a bang. Here ya go</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["549200"],"_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-69382bbc5a127"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brannon is a talented guard who has shown her versatility over the years by being able to not only apply pressure defensively, but offensively as well. Her<strong> "on the ball" </strong>defense baseline to baseline, as well as playing the passing lane, helped to create turnovers yet on the flip, she attacked the basket aggressively to score. She also dropped the jumper,<strong> "catch and shoot" </strong>included </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["597323"],"_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-69382bbc5a1ab"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Johnson has gone from a slasher who could score from the wing and around the basket to dropping the midrange while being defended. She's <strong>"long and athletic,"</strong> which is the base, and she stands just under <strong>"the magic number."</strong> Another advantage she has is her ability to elevate over defenders to score. Her defense, court vision, as well as shot blocking all looked good</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["875707"],"_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-69382bbc5a1fe"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Glover falls into that <strong>"never takes a play off"</strong> group of players who just consistently bring heat on both ends of the court. Watching her acrobatic finishes after contact has been a pleasure, but seeing her develop into a point guard who understands how to control the tempo, as well as getting her teammates involved, has also been nice. Her defensive pressure, including diving for loose balls, as well as dropping the jumper, looked good as well</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["890958"],"_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-69382bbc5a24c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Blount is one of the top combo guards in the area, and the thing I have always enjoyed about her game is that no matter what the setting or system is, she finds ways to be relevant. She's closing it out with a new team and provides instant offense off the bench. Her pull-up, stop and pop as well as<strong> "catch and shoot" </strong>jumpers give defenders problems because she can also explode off the dribble and score. Her<strong> "on the ball"</strong> pressure was yet another plus </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1222346"],"_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-69382bbc5a29c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">King is one of the most improved players from freshman season to now, I have seen in the state, and watching her<strong> "on the court" </strong>progression from being primarily a back-to-the-basket player who could rebound to one who can not only score off the dribble, but drop the midrange while being defended is nice. Speaking of defense, she also did a good job inside and outside the paint, plus her court vision has gotten better</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
