She's a powerhouse that greatly affects the outcomes of games. The strength, quick tendencies in her footwork, ideal rim protection and soft touch around the rim are just some of the reasons so many coaches are offering her. There just aren't many players in the class with her level of influence. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1278761"],"_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-6a43191ca49c2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1278761' first='Taylor' last='Bullock'] (2031) | CG | </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bullock helped lead her team to the 9th grade Hoop Group championship while playing up. She's a true gamer that utilizes space well, comes off screens efficiently and provides 2-way relentlessness. The athleticism along with ideal length at the position makes her a tough matchup. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["989995"],"_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-6a43191ca4a10"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='989995' first='Peyton' last='Lacey'] (2031) | PG | </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lacey has been looking extremely polished in all of her latest games. There's never a question about her reliability either, Peyton always finds ways to either put the ball in the basket or make plays that lead others to buckets. The pressure she puts on the defense causes serious damage. Lacey is carrying a ton of buzz for a young name of the summer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["351875"],"_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-6a43191ca4a58"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='351875' first='Alannah' last='Morantus'] (2028) | PG | </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Alannah's exquisite play over the past few months has been nothing short of impressive. The schools are pouring in for her and Alannah is very deserving of all of the attention. This is a gamechanger whose trajectory is skyrocketing even though already viewed as a premier player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1217900"],"_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-6a43191ca4aa1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1217900' first='Olivia' last='Breen'] (2030) | PF | </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The news of Breen's reclass forces reconsideration in how the 2030 class is viewed. There's not much detail at the moment about where she's taking her talents just yet or if she's staying in Maine, however this headline alone is enough reason to mention her. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
