Prospects Making Noise: A1 Hoops Fall League Pt. 1

The energy was high, and several players made sure their performances wouldn't go unnoticed. From dynamic scoring and play-making to relentless impact plays on both ends of the floor, this weekend housed plenty of talent from across the upstate. While plenty of players had strong moments, a select group consistently separated themselves from the pack. Here's a closer look at the top play makers from Saturday's action at the A1 Hoops Fall League.    Fresh off an outstanding summer with the AEBL Girlz of the Nike EYBL, Evie looks quicker and stronger than ever. Still showing off her deep range at times on Saturday, she also handled full court pressure all day and still eclipsed the 20 point mark in her contests. The pick up on her pull up jump shot is quicker and smoother, and her passing is stellar. It's clear to see why she picked up a few more D1 offers over the summer, playing at nearly 6'0 from the PG position.     There is a lot to like about this 2031. What first jumps out is her constant communication on the offensive end of the floor, usually finished by a basket for herself or a teammate. She has a smooth stroke from deep and was one of the only true jump shooters in attendance on Saturday. Paris led all scorers on her Greer squad this weekend, playing several years above what you would expect from a 2031 prospect. Look for her to become a household name by the end of this season.     This little known center from Fountain Inn is ready for a big senior season. She has a great motor that toes the line between physical and OC at times. Able to pickup and guard full court 1-5, her athleticism and hustle make plays all over the floor. Today she showed an offensive package from two levels on the floor which will certainly help Fountain Inn make some noise this year. As she continues to balance her hustle with smart decision making, look for her to become a more consistent scorer on her way to play at the next level.     A young SG with a scorers mentality that was on full display Saturday. KK was the second leading scorer in her first game with 3 second half threes on her way to 18 points for her BBB squad. In addition to her shooting touch KK also displayed an ability to drive the lane with contact and finish with either hand around the rim. She picked up in full court defense for the entirety of the game and bothered every other guard she matched up with. KK shows a drive and capability to be a big time player before it's all said and done.     With speed, speed, and more speed, this prospect has speed to spare for her Wren squad this year. A quickly improving 2029 prospect she outpaced everyone on the floor whenever she wanted to. She is one to keep an eye on as she keeps working on her ball handling and shooting. Once those catch up to what she can do already on the defensive end of the floor and her speed, she will be a tough two way player for her squad and capable of putting a lot of pressure on opposing teams.
