Lit From Pit: Weekend B4 Live Event Was Hot

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>USE CODE "tinnon30" FOR 30% OFF THE FIRST PURCHASE OF ANY SUBSCRIPTION</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This past weekend, clubs from around the state went to various locations to get some pre-live period work in before this upcoming NCAA Live Period event. Teams went to NC, PA, AL, and other places regionally to get a good bump in before playing in front of Division 1 coaches. I know our girls were ready to compete against some other kids they normally don't get to face. I was live from Pittsburgh, and let me tell you, there were some true prospects up there. Didn't matter the circuit: P32, 3SSB, EYBL, GUAA, all of it was in one location, and it was truly a sight to see. Courts were littered with spectators, watching some of the top kids in the country.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The kids from TN held their own against some stiff competition. I will say, there were some girls up there that were just different. They moved differently. Play differently. Look differently. Our girls competed and went after them no differently than they would from someone down here. It was a great sight to see, and the environment was great to be in.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are a few girls from the state that piqued my interest while watching them play ball against some good competition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1133760"],"_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-69dd339f78a5f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She is a quiet assassin who just gets after it. She went against the bigger girls and just played up. Dropped over 30 in one game and was just in her bag as her club went onto capturing a victory. All weekend long, it was one tough opponent after another. She did her thing, getting to the rim, making the right reads, and of course, scoring when needed. If she carries that same mentality into the Live event and continues on this trajectory over the summer, she will most definitely be a solid prospect for coaches to call as soon as they can. She will be in the running again for Miss Tennessee and is a heavy favorite to win it for her class.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["909030"],"_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-69dd339f78aeb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Don't let the size fool you, she hit a clutch 3 at the buzzer to send her team into overtime. In OT, she did her thing and helped her club capture the W. All weekend long, she played with poise, hunted great shots, and contributed not only to scoring but also to other aspects of the game. She was solid from the field, and I predict her to have a solid summer moving forward as well. A prospect that will surely get plenty of looks this upcoming season.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1155021"],"_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-69dd339f78b49"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"> A kid who just plays. I've said it before, she just goes out and competes, and she doesn't care who you are or where you are from. Offensively, she displayed her shiftiness, getting to the rim, and finishing at the rim despite contact. Defensively, she was a dawg, picking up full court, pickpocketing girls left and right. She was the leading scorer on multiple occasions, but a lot of that stemmed from her defensive ability. Keep an eye on this solid prospect as she looks to raise her stock even more.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1039130"],"_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-69dd339f78ba2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Versatile kid who can play anywhere on the floor. She was so shifty getting to the rack. From shooting runners, reverse, layups, dialing it up from multiple spots on the floor, she found the bottom of the net at a high clip throughout the weekend. A special trait of hers is her ability to drop dimes. Attack an extra defender, and she just drops it off. A selfless kid who is truly a gamer. Her stock will increase this travel ball season for sure.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1050300"],"_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-69dd339f78c0e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Anchored the paint in PA and did so very effectively. She displayed her power and strength as she established a position down low and finished. She looked good, scoring, finishing over either shoulder. Defensively, she was big-time on the boards, making it tough for players to operate around the rim. She is playing with a lot of confidence, and she is one to keep your eyes on as she looks to have a great spring and summer.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
