She is solid at scoring with her back to the basket. But what I think really sets her apart is her ability to shoot at her size. She doesn't need a lot of room to get her shot off because of her length. Summer is a good defender with her ability to block shots and use her frame to alter shots and get into passing lanes.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["611346"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='611346' first='Azareya' last='Whiting'] is what you want out of a wing. She is strong and athletic and always makes her presence felt. She is a good driver and plays physically when she gets into the paint. She is a fantastic anticipatory defender, and she uses that to get out in transition and use her speed and overall fantastic athleticism. She is tenacious on defense and does a lot of good work as a rebounder. Azareya is only about 5'8”, but she plays a lot bigger than that with her strength and energy.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["239468"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"I am a huge fan of Junior forward [player_tooltip player_id='239468' first='Jamia' last='Taylor']'s game. She has good length and is a fantastic athlete. These traits help make her a fantastic rebounder and shot blocker. She has a lot of skill on offense and will take a substantial offensive jump this year. She has a nice jump shot and is expanding her range. She can hit jumpers, spotting up or in the mid-range. She puts the ball on the floor and gets her shot off. Jamia has excellent potential and is a player to watch this weekend.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"Emorean Thomas ","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"12123","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"Dunbar ","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_3_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"In her first year, Emorean Thomas was one of the best players on a championship-winning Dunbar team, and she had another really solid year in her sophomore year. Emorean is a good passer and terrific when she drives to the rim. Emorean is an efficient scorer and a skilled finisher. She could be a better jump shooter, but her ability to score in the paint makes her so hard to stop.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["387406"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='387406' first='Ava' last='King'] is a good two-way player. She is always super active defensively, getting steals and blocking shots. She is a good spot-up shooter and is a solid rebounder. Ava is what you want from a wing and someone I am excited to watch more of this weekend.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64ee26d18c794"} /-->
