Ashlinn flexed her muscle today with a strong all-around performance. She asserted herself early on offense with a powerful drive that resulted in an and-one to start the game. Ashlinn showed good elevation on her pull-up jumpers and did a great job keeping her head up to find teammates running the floor in transition. She also dazzled with a reverse layup at the rim and displayed her range from deep, draining back-to-back triples to open the fourth quarter.
Stats: 22 PTS, 5 REB, 2 AST, 1 BLK, 1 STL

Ashlinn showed exactly why she’s a Top 100 prospect and one of the most dynamic guards in the country. A true PG, she combines elite athleticism with high-level shot-making ability and excellent court-vision. She can also guard all over the floor on defense. Ashlinn looks like a shoo-in for Kentucky Miss Basketball.

Ashlinn continues to make her case as the top 2026 prospect in the state. The uber-talented guard added a Big East offer to her bag from Marquette University a few weeks back. Look for her to make a lot of noise in the 7th region this season.

Ashlinn was in attack mode on offense and did a nice job using her speed and quick first-step to blow past defenders and propel herself to the basket to draw contact or finish with a layup. She also played ball-harassing defense on the perimeter and used her athleticism to jump and deflect passes that led to turnovers for her team.

Ashlinn moves from 5th to first in this update off a strong AAU season that brought her several D1 offers and a great performance at our Top 250 camp where she was the best player in the gym. James is a point guard who can score or create offense for teammates. She plays with a great motor and high basketball IQ and could hold on to the top spot for a while.
