She took the lead guard role for Legynds in Vegas and thrived during that weekend. She's a two-way impact player, with a quick first step. And has a mindset to cause turnovers on the defensive end. Does a lot of her scoring in transition, but was also capable of getting downhill in halfcourt setting. Is building momentum for a big role on a Mustang squad that is expected to a Class 6A contender. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["792786"],"_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-6a6bfa6f1c233"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Toliver was a force from 15 feet and in for Legynds' 16U squad. Was consistently money in the mid-range, around the elbows. Along with the the jumpers, she's a smart and tough player around the rim. Her huge wingspan leads to blocks, rebounds and altered shots. Is a tough finisher at the basket. Toliever is an interesting prospect because she's crafty, knows how to play. But athletically still feels like she's only scratching the surface of the dominant force she can become. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1891477"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1891487,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a6bfa6f1c282"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It's no surprise given Jones' family background that is she is fast and tough. The new Muskogee guard is a handful to keep out of the paint. Routinely got down hill, leading to the defense collapsing and she made the right passes to open teammates. Her ability to pressure the rim should translate to the 6A level, and she's a key addition for the 6A contenders.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1180428"],"_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-6a6bfa6f1c253"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">While an ankle injury hindered some of Jones' time in Chicago, it was a big step forward from this spring. She played the 16U level and was a reliable knockdown threat from three in Vegas and Chicago. It felt like the game slowed down for her in July. As along with the threes, she got into the mid-range. Also helped make the offense flow with smart passing for a very successful team. It was interesting to see her adjust and thrive in a role with older prospects. Because she surely will be a bucket getter this winter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1418261"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1891495,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a6bfa6f1c2a0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In a game watched in Chicago, Carrington brought it with all action on both ends of the court. Big time hustler on the defensive end. Pressuring in the backcourt, and racing down loose balls. It carries over to the offensive end where she snagged a surprising amount of rebounds for a smaller guard. Plenty of reps this summer and a strong motor should serve her well for this upcoming high school seaosn. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["875150"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1891493,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a6bfa6f1c2bc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stepp is a quality athlete, who seemingly glides around the court. She's light on her feet, capable of breaking down the defense and pressing the rim. Her quickness makes her a true threat off the bounce. Needs to tighten up her handle, but her combo of athleticism and the positive energy she brings make her a prospect to watch. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
