Introducing the 2031 Watch List: Part 2

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sometimes I catch players for the first time and just know what's coming, not only because I'm a <strong>REAL EVALUATOR </strong>but keep in mind, I have been out here over a score, <strong>that's 20 years,</strong> and I know where the bar has been set and it's not always about putting up a lot of numbers, you know, scoring yet here are some of the recent sightings as well as <strong>"on the court"</strong> progression from others I knew about </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1871923"],"_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-6a4d19b8709f7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jones is <strong>"long and athletic"</strong> which is the base, and even though I say that over and over, many don't get it, but get what I saw <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2026/06/june-jamboree-new-faces-signal-a-new-era/">see evaluation here</a></em></strong> She's so smooth under pressure and watching her not only handle the ball but score off the dribble, as well as from outside down the stretch showed me she already understands how to take games over down the stretch </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1846071"],"_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-6a4d19b870a33"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Parker was not playing in the division I was covering at<strong> Duel For The Dynasty,</strong> however, since I have mastered the art of covering multiple courts at the same time, I saw enough to know what's coming. She stands above <strong>"the magic number" </strong>and is also <strong>"long and athletic,"</strong> yet her college-ready body, along with lateral movement on defense, allowed her to hold her man both in and outside the paint. She was playing up, and her<strong> UPSIDE</strong> is intriguing as she gave me a variety of moves to score around the basket, plus her court vision looked good</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1231260"],"_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-6a4d19b870a56"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Blanton continues to elevate her game, and after her <strong>"third time is a charm"</strong> sighting, <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/jayde-blanton/">see evaluations here </a></em></strong>her versatility is shaping up her game even more because she's playing multiple positions. Going from a back-to-the-basket player who rebounded to handling the ball and going the length of the court to score, while being defended, is one thing, but her facing the basket to score has gotten better, so let me go back to<strong><em><a href="https://girlzprepreport.blogspot.com/2023/07/2031-girls-jr-phenoms-top-performers.html"> her first write-up, </a></em></strong>and hopefully you get the picture</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1806269"],"_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-6a4d19b870a76"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hensley is so powerful, and evidently, I misspelled her name because I have written about her more than once,<strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/layla-hensley/"> see evaluation here</a>,</em></strong> but she's another player who is just continuing to move upwards with some pluses, and when you're this young and already able to size defenders up and overpower them off the dribble, as well as around the basket, that falls into the <strong>"something you can't teach" </strong>category yet her midrange has also gotten better</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["976585"],"_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-6a4d19b870a95"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Snyder is definitely a player you will be hearing about , hold on, 3 years ago at the J<strong>R Phenom Camp, <em><a href="https://girlzprepreport.blogspot.com/search?q=olivia+snyder">see evaluation here</a>,</em></strong> and yes, anytime I get to plus myself, I'm going to do it but her skillset has always been there, heading to the 5th grade and finishing with either hand is not common but she keeps adding <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/olivia-snyder/">see evaluations here </a></em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
