At 6'3”, she's a tough matchup, able to shoot over defenders from three or finish over the top at the rim. Her length also stands out defensively, where she uses her reach to swat away shots and protect the paint.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["352995"],"_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-69e01450eb752"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Alexa is playing for Lady Rivals on the 3SSB circuit and will be competing in a live period in Bryan, Texas this weekend. She has a smooth three-point stroke and can finish effectively over defenders at the rim. She's also a capable mid-range scorer and pushes the pace in transition, handling the ball well and getting down the court quickly.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["922619"],"_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-69e01450eb7b1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Delaney already holds a Division II offer and continues to draw interest from high-level programs. She is an elite three-level scorer, with her ability to shoot from beyond the arc standing out the most. She's effective pulling up in the mid-range off the dribble and finishes strong at the rim, doing a great job protecting the ball. She also opened her AAU season with a strong tournament, picking up two wins over high-level competition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["747029"],"_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-69e01450eb7fd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Leah does a great job attacking the basket from the perimeter and uses strong footwork around the rim to stay balanced and finish. She's a reliable three-point shooter who can score both off the catch and off the dribble. With the ball in her hands at the top of the key, she makes smart decisions and consistently creates opportunities, while also generating turnovers by jumping into passing lanes on defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1324645"],"_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-69e01450eb843"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Isabell played well at the New England Showdown Showcase this past weekend, showing her ability to score in the paint and mid-range. She's effective at getting into the lane and knocking down shots like floaters and fadeaways. She plays with patience, letting the game come to her instead of forcing shots, and demonstrated her shot-making ability by hitting multiple tough mid-range looks over defenders.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
