Jade Bell Jade Bell 5'8" | PG/SG Rocky River | 2028 State NC is another tough shooter showing off her ability to pull up off the dribble.  The way she takes advantage of every little hesitation by her defenders is fun to watch as she blows by them on the way to some points banking it off the glass.  She meets her opponents with tough defense on the other end picking their pockets to explode to the other end of the court.

Jade continues to impress with the way she scores the basketball. She can get explode and get downhill using both hands anytime she wants. She muscles her way through the defense and then shows an underhand finesse scoop lay in. That is one of her signature moves. However, she will also cross you up and do a step back three at any moment. Bell was also impressive rebounding the ball displaying just how strong she is physically.

Jade is averaging 30 points per game and having to score in multiple ways for her high school team. Normally when she is creating shots and scoring points it is between two to three defenders because the defense is focused on trying to find a way to stop her. An elite scorer that has swag and can do every facet of the game well. Strong on the boards and always gets matched up to defend the other team’s best player. Her ranking will continue to go up as more people see her play. She is a P4 recruit.

A huge scoring threat at all three levels. This young lady has been killing it the past few games scoring 40 and 39 points respectively. Not only is she lighting up the scoreboard, but she also has had double digit rebounds and steals resulting in a triple double. A true scorer who can shoot threes over defenders, elevate on pull up jumpers and muscle her way to the rim finishing with either hand. One of the best athletes I have seen play this year.

Bell wasted no time putting herself on the map in her eighth-grade season at United Faith Christian Academy and has brought her many talents to a Rocky River team that will be competing in 7A this coming season. In her freshman campaign last season with the Ravens, Bell played in 21 games and averaged 11.9 points, three rebounds and 2.3 steals a contest. After spending her time on the AAU circuit with the grassroots juggernaut that is Lady Attack Elite , Bell looks ahead to the 2025-26 with a Rocky River team that concluded its final season in the 4A ranks with a 17-9 record. 

Jade Bell Jade Bell 5'8" | PG/SG Rocky River | 2028 State NC had a nice scoop and score on a fast break making it through contact. She knew how to pull up for her shot or take it all the way to the basket banking it off the glass.  She can draw her defenders away from her teammates to get them the open look and make the dish scoring some points for her team.  She even had a nice blocked shot while someone was trying to drive by her.

Just as we began our 2028 point guards article with someone who caught our attention from the Prep Girls Hoops Carolinas Showcase, the same applies here. Bell was one of those who really shined at the Rock Hill Sports and Event Center and it told us that 4A Rocky River has a bright future. Bell already holds offers from Queens and North Carolina Central University and was playing up in class during the spring and summer months of AAU with Team Loaded 16U. Her club career also included a stint with Charlotte Monarchs. Last season with United Faith Christian Academy, she played in 21 games as an eighth grader and averaged 13 points, four points and 2.7 steals a contest.
