Updated 2030 Rankings: New Faces-Part 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I stress over and over that, with so many platforms, players may not be seen to get on the list yet after the<strong> PGH Freshman Showcase</strong>, there were several players who not only got on the list but also made statements in a big way.

Her half-court defense and rebounding look good, and so does her court vision.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1920225"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ada3cb4498f1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Chuma received the <strong>"trifecta"</strong> from me and my PGH colleagues at fresshman showcase and I was fortunate enough to catch her a little bit later at the <strong>Jerimiah Green Invitational <em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/akachukwu-chuma/">see evaluations here</a></em></strong> and I've mentioned over and over that I enjoy seeing players in different settings. She understands how to set the defender up to score off the dribble, her stop and pop in transition looks good and her <strong>"on the ball"</strong> pressure is another plus</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1321535"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ada3cb449912"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Calhoun was also evelauted by all three of us at the showcase however<strong> @playerrimedies</strong> had the jump as she evaluated her a year ago <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/baylei-calhoun/">see evaluations here</a></em></strong> Simple things like<strong> "hands and footwork"</strong> to finish will always grab my attention, so does intensity and her never taking a play off and being able to defend inside the paint and "on the ball" in transition is nice as she plays as if she is above <strong>"the magic number" </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1773829"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ada3cb449932"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lewis moves from the<strong> Watch List</strong> to<strong> Watch Out</strong> as her <strong>"on the court" </strong>progression shoed on both ends. Her diving for loose balls and creating havoc defensively led to turnovers but she also saw the floor in the set, as well as in transition. Her first step was another plus as she scored off te dribble and she knocked it down from outside</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
