About Olivya
Expert Analysis
Brandon Tinnon | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Look now, as this kid won’t be under the radar for long. A versatile big who impacts the game on both ends of the floor. She can score the ball from various shots, using her body, speed, and quickness to create favorable matchups. She thrives on the defensive end, blocking shots, stealing the ball, and owning the class. She is a high-level competitor who will anchor the back end of the Lady Rockets squad this year. Keep tabs on this young lady because she is just built different.

Olivya was another member of the 2030 class who stood out very early on in the day. I can honestly say I am not sure what her best position will be in four years, but Jones showed the ability to play competently and effectively on both the interior and perimeter on Sunday. She has the ball-handling ability, quickness, and shot-making ability from the outside to play as a wing. Olivya, with that great size and length, was also a mismatch when operating on the block being defended by smaller guards. Whatever position Jones ends up playing primarily, I expect her to have a very solid high school career with options to play on the next level in college. She impacted the game in other ways, not just scoring.

An up-and-coming prospect who is going to contribute for sure this season for the Lady Rockets. Strong in the frame and versatile, she anchored the low post. Offensively, she was solid, working block to block, finishing over either shoulder. She defended well in the low post, making it hard for girls to put the ball in the net. She was big-time on the boards, limiting the other team to a single possession. Yes, she was physical, but an asset about her was her ability to stretch the floor and attack. This kid is someone to watch for the coming years. Playing with confidence and poise, she will make some noise for sure. A solid with an upward trajectory.

Love Jones’ size- She’s a beast, and applies outstanding pressure on defense! You do not want to get into a physical match up with her, because her athleticism and ability to clean up the boards, score anywhere in the paint, and run the floor is impressive! She needs to be on coaches radars!
