Crudup rhymes with “shut up” to the naysayers, and one of my first sightings; see evaluation here. I mentioned she would be on this list at some point. Well, she made it a POINT to be just about wherever I was covering, and with over 25 Tip Sheets from me, see evaluations here her always being one of, if not the first, player at the event, coupled with her ” on the court” progression every time I caught her, says it all

Crudup became a Tip Sheet waiting to happen player a long time ago see evaluations here, and I have mentioned several times how impressed I am with her work ethic and desire to get better. She is defying gravity around the basket on her finishes and, at times, showing how acrobatic she is, yet watching her elevate to drop the jumper was on full display. Well, that, along with her rebounding and defense

Crudup is one of the most improved players in Texas from before high school to now, and seeing her continue to add more to her game each time I catch her speaks volumes about her work ethic. She has elevated her range, as well as body control after contact, yet seeing her score around the basket with either hand JUST DID IT for me see evaluations here

Crudup caught my attention early as she is always one of, if not the first player in the gym, putting up shots no matter what the setting is, and one of my early conversations with her showed she was more than next level in the making see evaluations here as this is my 25th Tip Sheet, which included her, so she’s a TIP SHEET waiting ot happen. Her spin move inside the paint, coupled with her elevating over the defender to score, dropped the mic, but hold on, she’s “long and athletic” and played the passing lane perfectly. Pull-up jumper has gotten better, she’s finishing with either hand after contact, and her “on the ball” pressure has also elevated, yet watching her “follow her shot” gets the, you know it, #THROWBACK

Crudup continues to show her name rhymes with “SHUT UP” as the naysayers either disappear or eat their words. Look, evaluating her early was easy because she’s a “long and athletic” guard who was just shy of “the magic number” but when you find players at showcases arriving 30 to 45 minutes early to get some shots in, that in itself should tell you something, but her mid to long-range has gotten even better see evaluations here

Crudup is steadily improving in every aspect of her game as she’s also becoming a double-double waiting to happen. Yes, she’s a “long and athletic” guard, which is also the base, and she’s finishing stronger after the lick. I’m also seeing her perimeter defense getting better, yeah, she’s still doing a good job playing the passing lane, yet her jumper, as well as court vision, have also shot up see previous evaluations

#23 up from #26 Crudup is special in so many ways other than her being a “long and athletic” guard, which happens to be the base. I have caught her in probably more settings than any other player, and “she’s a sponge” taking in what’s being taught and implementing it on the court see evaluations here

This was my first look at Crudup in person. Her length and size are impressive but her activity on the floor is even more impressive! She runs the floor well and forces opponents to alter shots with her shot-blocking presence. Uses her size effectively on defense while also showcasing great vision with sharp interior passes. Her two-way impact makes her valuable in both transition and half-court play.

Crudup was another “long and athletic” guard, and I have written countless articles on her showing what I love “on the court” progression, see evaluations here, and one thing that she always does is show me something new. She’s creating her shot better under pressure as well as getting off after elevating, but her range is also getting deeper. She played the passing lane, showed good timing to block shots, and saw the floor well

#26 up from #28 Crudup seems to be at just about every Individual Showcase as well as tryout I attend but even more impressive is that she always arrives ahead of time to put the work in prior to the event. She’s a gym rat who wants to get better and trust me, it’s showing on the court because she’s a “long and athletic” guard who can score and defend, this includes playing the passing lane yet her agressiveness off the dribble and finishing strongly after contact has shot up see evaluations here
