The Grand Canyon signee has always been about putting the ball in the bucket. She does that really well. What I love about her game is her attitude and willingness to do the dirty work. I am talking about rebounds, people, and she set the record for the most rebounds in a game with 23 the other night. Sometimes, kids take this stat for granted, but legendary Coach Pat Summitt emphasized it. KJ is a versatile kid who can do it all. She will be a key component for her club down the stretch. Look for her to lead the charge and be the one who maximizes everything she has to help her team win.

KJ is simply different! This one will shine at the next level. She has the size and versatility to truly be a difference maker! She is an athlete with a bag full of offers. After McNealy puts on a show during her senior year at Farragut, she will be pursuing her academic and athletic career at Grand Canyon University. I do believe this is a special fit for KJ. You could feel the excitement on her X, “I’m Going Back Home!!!”

 Blessed with size and length, this dynamic guard is a three-level scoring threat. She can fill it up inside and out as well as take advantage of guards who are smaller than her in the low block area. She has done a tremendous job of beating kids off the dribble and rising up above in the mid-range. She’s a contributor on the defensive end, where she gets deflections, steals, blocks, and rebounds. She is a heady ballplayer whose game keeps growing every time she steps on the floor.  KJ is a D1 prospect who will be a solid asset for any program at the next level.

This big guard has been putting in the work, and coaches have been taking notice. Her stock has increased as she has been getting it done on the hardwood floor. Not only has she been getting buckets, but contributing on the boards and the defensive end as well. She has great makeup: long, strong, plays with physicality, qualities D1 coaches look for in prospects. She can do it from the inside and out, which adds even more value to her stock. Keep tabs on her as more schools will look to offer her and try to gain her commitment.

She’s about to have a breakthrough year, and college coaches are taking notice. She has received multiple offers from schools across the country. More to be expected from this versatile wing who can play inside and out. She is the leading catalyst for her ballclub, and the way she hoops, she sure gets it done. A 3-level scoring threat who competes on both ends of the floor. Add in her ability to rebound, block shots, and do all the little things right, you have one solid prospect who is about to blow up majorly. 

She has had a great travel ball season thus far. She has racked up a few offers with more to come. Her stock is rising, and this weekend will be her time to shine and solidify where she belongs as one of Tennessee’s best. This kid is solid. Fun to watch. When the ball is in her hands, good things tend to happen. Doesn’t matter where she is on the floor; she is going to be a threat, especially if she has the rock in her hands. Don’t sleep on her defensively either, she is active and contributes in multiple ways. Solid kid who is raising the bar!

McNealy’s stock has sky rocketed over the past year. It’s her defensive versatility that makes her unique. Can certainly guard 1-4. Has put up 20 rebound game and is special in this department. She’s really begun to come into her own as an efficient and consistent scorer. She’s become a big time D1 kid. Could average 16 and 10 this year….as a guard.

McNealy has been on an upward trajectory since last season at Farragut after putting together a tremendous sophomore campaign. Her intangibles are off the chart as a wing with great size, athleticism, and big-time effort. She’s an elite rebounder for her position (her 18 rebound game from last season will likely always be one of the greatest high school level rebounding performances I’ve ever watched), but it’s her offensive development that has really begun to turn heads. She’s developed into a consistent shooter, and looked ultra-confident this summer as a playmaker off the bounce. She’s looked really good as the ball-handler in the pick and roll game, and anytime you have a 6’0 playmaking wing that is also a high-level defender and rebounder–you have something special. Underrated court vision too! She picked up big time D1 offer from South Florida recently (plus Tennessee Tech and Radford).

One of the highest upside ’26s in the state. She simply has the chance to be great with her unique combination of size, length, instincts, and skill. I’m still in awe of her 20 rebound game last season.

She’s been scoring in the low teens this summer for Farragut. I’d love to see her consistently get to 15 a game. Once the season starts, teams will game plan to take away Jaci Neubert Jaci Neubert 5'6" | PG Farragut | 2025 State TN . The scoring load with then fall on KJ, and she’s gotta embrace that responsibility. She’s a kid with all the tools to be big time D1, and I’m hoping to see her take a leap this season. With Neubert, Priest, Sheridan, VanAcker, Curry….Farragut is just LOADED with weapons.

But KJ is the real X factor at the wing. So talented.
