As the season wore on it became very apparent what she brought to the rotation. Length, quickness and flashiness off the bounce and finishing ability in transition against contact. And while I expect her scoring role to increase due to graduation of several seniors what I especially am looking forward to is seeing her as a force defensively. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1265875"],"_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-69fc08acc37e5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bush is a top 100 solidly positioned guard I have been looking forward to seeing in person. While she did not pick up any post-season honors following her junior year she is known to be a have a quick release off the catch, to elevate well when shooting the ball with range, make good decisions leading breaks and have good speed with the ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1236223"],"_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-69fcb4f7093ef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Playing for SBA last <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2025/07/new-names-of-2028s-from-run-4-roses/">summer</a> the Kickapoo guard caught the attention of my colleague Earl Austin not just because of her shooting but also for her consistency in preparing for a shot chances in a variety of situations. Colleges are always looking for strong shooters and I look forward to what Austin saw. The Chiefs reached the Missouri class 6A quarterfinals last season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["860460"],"_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-69fc0d4a7db2d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The two-time Big East third team selection is an intriguing prospect I have been looking forward to catching. She has shown good speed with the ball in transition and an ability to knock down shots in traffic and from the perimeter. Getting a good look at her quickness on both ends of the floor is among the things I will be eyeing. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1274871"],"_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-69fc0bd5804ba"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fresh off a big scoring performance against Oklahoma Swarm at Battle in the Big Friendly, and after reviewing analysis by my colleague Sam Duren, the Black Diamond Conference first team selection I am looking forward to seeing the full spectrum of the big guard's game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
