She's a quick guard who plays with good resiliency on both ends and was able to get not one, but two five-second violations called with her tight on-ball defense.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["584286"],"_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":"Richardson's a playmaker who really got it done across multiple fronts. She played with active hands on defense, was quick to loose balls, hustled to help out on the glass, and played some hard-nosed basketball. She's got a pretty shifty handle and was able to create some space and make nice feeds in by the hoop.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["317597"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Uusitalo was one of the top playmakers and scorers at the event, splashing in 3 after 3, and mixing in drives where she took multiple defenders out of the play and created space for teammates. She has great change of direction, plays with excellent control and calm, and was one of the smoothest players on display.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["589916"],"_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":"Quiggle was an active playmaker on both ends of the floor. She used a quick burst to attack gaps on offense and make plays to the hoop, and was one of the more intense defenders I saw, getting countless tips in passing lanes and working hard to snag rebounds.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["676259"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Benthin was really on another level and made it look pretty easy as I watched her with FOH Stuckey. She can beat her defender with either her physical tools or by outsmarting them. She's fluid with the ball, showed some good footwork while playing with speed, and mixed in ball fakes to freeze defenders. She was one of the top playmakers because she made great decisions on when to pass and when to score.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":6,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66484b8e989b4"} /-->
