A three-level scorer with range, elite mechanics, and a quick release that gives defenders no time to recover. She loves running in open space, coming off screens, and attacking before the defense can set up. Her handle gives her complete freedom on the court, and she has an array of moves to create separation and get to her spot at will. Her passing is effortless, and she can dart passes into tight windows and always finds the right read. Defensively, she matches that same intensity with great lateral footwork and active hands on the perimeter </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1862088"],"_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-6a19e3e9ad504"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Confident, athletic, and never takes a possession off. McGowan is a complete guard with an endless motor and the skill set to match. She shoots it with great mechanics and a quick release, slashes to the basket, and has the handle and vision to facilitate and set teammates up. Can create her own shot at any level and always knows where to be and makes the right play every time without hesitation. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["863731"],"_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-6a19e3e9ad5aa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ramos is an elite shooter with fluid mechanics and a natural feel for the game. She anticipates passing lanes, generates steals, and turns defense into offense in a hurry. Ramos loves to run and punishes teams on the break. Gets to the basket, plays physical, and has a nice touch around the rim with the ability to finish with her left hand. Tightening up her release is the one thing to clean up with more reps. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1154044"],"_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-6a1db4b590d8a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hankey is a mismatch, and a versatile big with a complete game on both ends. She has great footwork in the post, seals off defenders with ease, and finishes with either hand around the basket. Strong on the boards and always crashing for putbacks. Her shot-blocking is instinctive, and she possesses good hands and perfect timing without gambling. What makes her truly unique is her vision and feel as a facilitator kicking out or in a point forward role from the top of the key. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1862875"],"_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-6a25d8317727b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Nicholas is a prospect with real upside. Versatile athlete who gets to the basket and finishes with ease. She shows nice touch and footwork in the post, can create separation, and her mechanics are above average, which will need more refinement to extend her range and open up another level to her game. She can guard multiple positions and brings the physicality to hold her own in every matchup. Strong on the ball and a willing passer who makes the right play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
