Ayanna is a scrappy guard that crashed the offensive boards creating scoring opportunities for herself. A feature in a player that I really enjoy watching. Good decision on not forcing the shot as one possession she was patient on reading the close out driving baseline getting to the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Good reads when defending the passing lanes getting the steal or deflection. First time seeing Ayanna play and looking for to watch posted highlights.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1230852"],"_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-68c2f5350d027"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"> First time shooting Aniston play and you can tell she works on her shooting game. The form was nice, smooth and fingers down. Show good vision in the open floor with tough on point passes to the rim runners for easy points. A guard that did not mind getting in the paint for the defensive rebound. Good ball handles in the open court weaving in and out of defenders on one possession going coast to coast for the score. Looking forward to following her this season for Spiro. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["899181"],"_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-68c2f5350d0b8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A strong guard that gets downhill welcomes the contact for an old school And 1. A young lady that due to the number of guards playing on her team did not get to show the range I know she has from workout videos. Type of player that can make things happen without needing the ball is always in her hand. Move without the ball either cutting back door or flashing in the paint. Good footwork on her moves that shows she is putting the work in. Smooth mid-range jumper off the dribble gives an edge on the tough drive.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>On defense did whatever was asked. I saw her guard a guard and then switched to defend the forwards on sub rotation. On Saturday it was impressive to see how many possessions she steals with the offensive rebound. A freshman to keep an eye on for the next few years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1230774"],"_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-68c2f5350d145"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lefty shooting guard that has the length to play the small forward position as well. Perfect fit in an offense the runs 4 guard offensive set. Moved without the ball keeping spacing filling the open gaps. Showed some ball handling skills in the open court. Deep range on the 3-point that looks smooth with a strong snap with the wrist.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Harper did not mind rebounding among the post trying to get that extra possession. 2029 will see major minutes for the varsity this season due to graduation and a strong work ethic</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1210682"],"_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-68c2f5350d1b5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jaliyah has the height and physical strength to play 3-5 in high school. A very skilled scorer that has a strong mid-range game. Great hands-on cuts and post area grabbing almost any pass thrown her way. Showed range Saturday with a3-point show that was smooth for a power forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Defensively Jaliyah is quick enough to guard a 2-3 guard but strong enough as well to handle a 4-5, which is what she was asked to do Saturday. A great addition to Alex program Jaliyah adds great size and an athletic forward to their roster.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1278526"],"_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-68c2f5350d216"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Impressive performance in 5/5 play. At times she handled the point guard with great vision on the breaks looking for the rim runner. High I Q allowed her to move over to the 2-guard spot looking like that was her natural position. Nice pocket dribble used to be patient for the gap to open looking to turn the corner. Strong finisher at the rim that drew plenty of fouls as she was a foul magnet all day. Shooting range on the catch or off the ball screen makes her a player to go over.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If you are going to play at Edmond North, you had better play defense. Lillie has that cover. Solid game all around Saturday, looking to follow this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["913692"],"_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-68c2f5350d272"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Long guard that seems taller than 5;8 due to an athletic body and long wingspan. Multi type player, as I am sure she played all 5 positions at one point Saturday. Seemed more comfortable as the point guard. Patient ball handler that used a controlled dribble just waiting explode down the lane getting to the rim. A shooter off the dribble or ball screen requires some talking on defense when guarding this young lady. Strong downhill driver that gets to the paint making things happen.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Solid all around defender that can guard in the open floor as well as on the blocks. Quick jump on the passing lane led to points off turnovers for her team. The incoming freshman will be a great addition for the Lady Jaguars who return large majority of their points from last season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
