Expert Analysis
Brandon Tinnon | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
This kid is about to hit a turning point, transitioning from prospect to someone who has helped put their school on the map. Blessed with size and length, she competes with high energy on both ends of the floor. Defensively, she was physical, grabbed boards, and ran the floor well in transition to establish herself in the paint. Offensively, she was great with her back to the basket, as well as facing up and going to work. I loved her demeanor on the floor as she competed until time was up. This kid is going to help Kirkwood take the next step. Look for her also to be a name not only in the Clarksville area, but one that you will hear over the next few years.

had one of the most intriguing games out of every player at the event. At the #93 spot, she has a huge chance to rise in the ranks in the upcoming high school season.
At the TN Expo event, she showed great versatility on the offensive end. She has a crossover that covers a lot of ground and has a smooth jumper for her size at 6’0″. On the day, through both five-on-five and three play, she made multiple threes and had some crafty buckets around the basket.
On defense, Jones is an elite defender. Her arms are incredibly long, and that, paired with her foot speed, was giving opposing players problems all day at the event.

Hard working kid who can not only score the basketball, but impact the game in a multitude of ways. I love her ability to rebound, block shots, and defend. Then when it comes to the offensive side of the ball, she is going to score, stretch the floor, and get O boards. She competes every time she steps onto the floor. A solid prospect who is on the upswing.

A versatile player who has great size and speed. She is a hooper who can knock down the mid-range jumper. She can face up or get down and exploit the low block area. Defensively, she controls the boards and blocks shots. Any old school true hoopers remember a guy named Stromile Swift for the Memphis Grizzlies? This kid’s game is a lot like his. A solid ballplayer who has great size and length, who can be a true disruptor.

Possesses great size and length, this kid can score it from all 3 levels. Has such quickness that enables her to contort her body against contact to finish at the rim. Mid-range, short corners, she’s on point from those areas. Big in the rebound game and of course blocks shots. I love how she can get up and down the floor and teammates hit her in stride for easy transition buckets. This kid is on the upswing. As her confidence grows, look for her game to explode as well.

Jones was recently mentioned as an under the radar ’27, and she’s beginning to now put together some really impressive stat lines. In a district win over Sprinfield, Jones finished with 11 points, 6 rebounds, 6 steals, and 5 assists. Gosh…that’s just impressive for a freshman. 5 assists is a big time number, and she is graded as a plus defender. Keep an eye on Jones and that young Kirwood squad.

, 2027, has been a sneaky good freshman for a really young Kirwood HS team. Jones came into the season with a big-time travel ball reputation, and has just built on that. She’s a slithery scorer that is able to find angles to the rim other guards can’t see. She plays with a fantastic intuition as a playmaker attacking the rim…as she continues to learn the correct reads once she get’s a “paint touch”, her game will continue to flourish. Really high upside kid.
