Kaliyah Eason is the kind of player every program at the next level needs in their gym. The junior Small Forward goes beyond her role every single night — diving on the floor for loose balls, crashing the glass, and swatting shots with the relentless energy. She plays hard, she plays physical, and she plays that way the entire game. 

Jones anchors Manor’s interior defense and rebounding efforts. In the semifinal victory, she recorded a double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds while also adding 3 blocks. Jones also surpassed 500 career rebounds, highlighting her consistency on the glass. She uses her length effectively to contest and alter shots in the paint and plays an important role in the team’s full-court pressure defense. Her hustle for rebounds and second-chance opportunities gives Manor valuable possessions on both ends.

Jones provides Manor with a strong interior presence while also showing the ability to stretch the floor. Jones positions herself well around the basket for scoring opportunities and rebounds while also stepping out to knock down jumpers or three-pointers when given space. Her ability to run the floor in transition and capitalize on open opportunities adds another dimension to Manor’s offense.

Jones, a Second Team All-District selection, provides Manor with a strong interior presence and consistent production. In the regional semifinals against Warhill, she recorded a dominant double-double with 12 points, 16 rebounds, and 5 blocks, continuing a trend of multiple double-double performances this season. Jones positions herself well around the basket and looks to make herself available for scoring opportunities, whether on the block or by finding space on the perimeter. She can step out and knock down jumpers, including three-pointers, showing her ability to stretch the floor. Jones also runs the floor in transition, getting ahead of the play for fast-break finishes while using smart positioning to capitalize on open space.

Great length and wingspan for a guard/wing! Good upside but still is a raw player with a high ceiling. She can operate around the mid-range area and can take her opponents to the basket off the dribble. Keeps her hands active at the defensive end of the floor, looking to get steals and deflections to turn defense into offense.
