Eye Catching Stock Risers: Peggy Whitley Classic

Not only is she<strong> "long and athletic"</strong> but she stands above <strong>"the magic number"</strong> and seeing her knock down midrange jumpers is a huge plus because<strong> "next level coaches" </strong>love seeing that. She also uses a deceptive first step to score off the dribble, body control was also nice</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1500594"],"_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-6935c08e841b3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Toussaint falls into that <strong>#sizedontmatter </strong>group, and when you can bring heat on both ends as she does, it truly doesn't matter. She has a nice first step to blow by defenders, coupled with solid body control on her finishes. Her court vision is solid; she can drop the jumper, <strong>"catch and shoot"</strong> included, and her "on the ball" pressure helps create turnovers. Here's<strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/02/uil-5a-crosby-advances-past-galveston-ball-in-round-1/"> an earlier evaluation </a></em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["889018"],"_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-6935c08e84232"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Crudup is steadily improving in every aspect of her game as she's also becoming a double-double waiting to happen. Yes, she's a<strong> "long and athletic"</strong> guard, which is also the base, and she's finishing stronger after the lick. I'm also seeing her perimeter defense getting better, yeah, she's still doing a good job playing the passing lane, yet her jumper, as well as court vision, have also shot up <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/nylah-crudup/">see previous evaluations </a></em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1308142"],"_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-6935c08e842ad"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kern is showing that she not only wants the ball in pressure situations, but she also delivers, and her clutch shooting down the stretch helped secure a victory. Yes, she dropped the mid to long-range and also showed she could "catch and shoot" but her poise under pressure is just something you can't teach, and seeing her prior to that getting hers "in the flow" as well as playing solid defense were all nice <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/julia-kern/">see evaluations here </a></em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["764246"],"_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-6935c08e84329"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Roberts can hurt opposing teams in so many ways because she reads the floor and plays the passing lane very well, but seeing what she does afterward in the open court has always <strong>JUST DID IT</strong> for me. She can hit teammates in traffic from<strong> 20 feet away</strong>, court vision across the board looks good, yet she's another<strong> "long and athletic"</strong> guard who can score multiple ways, including finishing acrobatically. Her "on the ball" pressure is sold, and she's<strong> "vocal on the court"</strong> <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/eryn-roberts/">see evaluations here</a></em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
