Tink Butler | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Eden looked polished on the floor. She was patient securing deep position in the post and there wasn’t a player on the floor with the size and strength to contain her in the paint. She made a three pointer off the glass, this was the first time that I’ve seen her shoot from that range and showed a nice touch from around eight feet away from the basket. Her rebounds were kept high and out of harms way for the outlet pass. She had a solid game on both ends.

Eden is coming off a strong summer campaign that firmly established her among the top freshmen in the region. She brings a physical presence to the paint and has shown that she can hold her own against older, more experienced post players. Eden doesn’t shy away from contact, using her strength to establish position and finish through defenders rather than around them. She is particularly effective on the glass, attacking rebounds at their highest point and securing possessions in traffic. Her ability to run the floor adds another element to her game, allowing her to transition quickly from rebounding and defending to becoming a scoring option on the opposite end. Eden’s physical maturity and willingness to battle inside distinguish her from many players entering their freshman season.

Eden made her presence known from the tip. She plays an upperclassman game on both ends of the ball.
Offensively, Dixon can score with her back to the basket by reading her defender and spinning away from the help defense, while finishing around the rim with a soft touch and good use of the backboard, finishing with eight points.
Defensively, Dixon is a disrupter in the paint. She contests every shot within her range and fights to win the rebound game.

Eden showcased her primetime potential during the Takeover Cinco de Mayo event, proving she could not only compete but excel while playing up against older, more experienced competition. She established herself as a force in the paint, using her size, strength, and physicality to dominate both ends of the floor. At approximately 6’3″, she immediately commands attention the moment she steps on the court, and her solid frame and impressive wingspan had college coaches taking notice throughout the evaluation period.
The next step in Eden’s development will be bringing that same level of intensity and production every time she takes the floor. In a loaded DMV class, consistency is what separates great prospects from elite ones. If she can match the effort and confidence she displayed at Cinco de Mayo on a nightly basis, she has all the tools to become “that girl” in the Class of 2030, she climbed from #23 to #4 in the rankings.

, she showcased her physicality by fighting for position in the paint. When she wasn’t battling on the block, she was crashing the glass and creating second-chance opportunities. Eden is a post player who consistently makes her presence felt with or without the ball.

Eden was held down the middle controlling the boards. She finished well after the offensive boards even tipping the ball to herself for better positioning. She shot the hook shot with a natural touch and ran the floor. She showed the framework to start driving from the key and perimeter, which is going to make her more of a problem for defenders.

Eden at 6’3″ was one of the youngest players on the court. The middle schooler was dominant inside finishing in a variety of ways. She had an impressive reverse lay in after a rebound in traffic. Another play she beat everyone down the court for the catch and transition finish. She jumped a pass and took the ball the length of the floor for the score. Her best play was navigating to the car with opposing coaches looking to talk to her and her parents to recruit her.
