3 Point Shooter Needing Heat Check (Heart of Texas)

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Shooters were on full display at the Heart of Texas this weekend. Nothing changes momentum faster than a player getting hot from deep, and several standouts showed the ability to light it up in a hurry.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>From catch-and-shoot snipers to guards creating off the bounce, these players proved why spacing and shot-making are still game changers. A few quick triples can flip a game instantly — and these shooters had an impact on the game's outcomes</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["992446"],"_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-6a0b85b931170"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Anna could possibly be one of the biggest stock gainers from the games I was able to watch this weekend. The 6'1” wing got on an absolute heater in a big game, knocking down two straight shots plus a layup to spark a 12-0 run for her team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Long small forward that can play on the wing like a big guard. I've also seen Anna play with her back to the basket, which gives her great versatility offensively. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Again, a player that made the most of her opportunity this weekend, and I know she caught the attention of several coaches in attendance. [player_tooltip player_id='992446' first='Anna' last='Sudbeck'] could definitely be considered a stock riser from the weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["878672"],"_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-6a0b85b9311f4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">First time seeing Addie play in person, and the 6'3 wing definitely looked the part of a complete guard. Saturday she put the full package on display with her ability to knock down the three in multiple ways. coming off pin down screens, operating out of ball screens, or flowing right into a quick 1-2 footwork jumper at the top of the key.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>What stood out most was how comfortable she looked handling the ball at her size. Addie showed the ability to create off the dribble, make plays for others, and still stretch the floor consistently from deep. Players with that kind of size, skill set, and versatility are tough matchups.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I'm sure many people have already seen what she can do, but seeing it live for the first time was impressive.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1090920"],"_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-6a0b85b931248"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Okay, when is Easton McCullough NOT on a heat check?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I've seen this young lady play many times, and every single time she steps on the floor, she has the capability to go off from beyond the arc. She's got DEEP range at that.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I believe the hardest part about guarding her is just how smooth her shot is. She's the type of shooter that can pull right up into it the second you back up a step to defend the drive.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Just a consistent shooter that I'd guess knocks down 4-5 threes a game. A true “Hand Down, Man Down” type of player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1267805"],"_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-6a0b85b931297"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tall shooting guard that most coaches already know about, so it only takes a couple makes in a row before defenses start running her off the 3-point line. Kenley has clearly worked on adding the mid-range jumper to her game, and it looked sharp this weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the most consistent shooters in the gym, she may have one of the quickest catch-and-shoot releases coming off screens. Kenley is a pure shooter with deep range who was able to put together some impressive scoring streaks throughout the weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">What stands out now is the growth in her overall offensive package. The addition of the mid-range game and ability to attack off the bounce gives her the opportunity to become a true three-level scorer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["913442"],"_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-6a0b85b9312e4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A pure shooter that quietly relocates without the ball, always finding an open spot for the kick-out knockdown jumper. Consistent shooter in every game I watched. Lauren is good for an average of 2-3 threes a game, and even though she is capable of making more, that shooting ability opens driving lanes for her to get to the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Scrappy defender that doesn't mind getting in the mix for loose balls. What impressed me most was that her threes always came within the flow of the game. Nothing ever seemed forced or like a bad decision. Just a smart player that understands the game</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
