Marissa Rimbert | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
By the second day of the tournament, Jefferson was in full rhythm. She’s a guard that makes it count on the glass, attacking for second-chance opportunities and powering through contact to earn trips to the line. Her downhill game is polished—she gets into the lane with purpose, and her footwork and pace reflect a strong feel for reading the defense and making the right counters. Not only a threat in transition, but also in a structured half-court offense, Jefferson had enough room to create and attack showing mid range shooting abilities as well.

Jefferson made a huge jump after I caught her with her new Hoop 10 club team at the Clash Of The Clubs, yet with her athleticism and ability to bring heat on both ends, expect even bigger jumps see evaluations here

Jefferson is another player I caught early and happened to catch back up with her last season at the Neville Jones Invitational see evaluations here, so her “stop and pop” jumper was fluid and consistent, and her ability to blow by defenders in the open court, as well as in the set, looked even better. Defense was smothering at times, and her court vision across the board was solid

Jefferson was exciting yet even more exciting for me was her mom telling me I had her on my Tip Sheet 4 years ago see evaluation here so when I hashtag #ThereIsNoMe I really mean it because as usual, I was pot on. Her “on the ball” pressure was smothering at times and she also played the passing lane. Court vision across the board was solid, her first step was impressive, as were her finishes after contact, plus she dropped the jumper
