Expert Analysis
Brandon Tinnon | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
This kid is a self-made ball player who has worked her tail off. A multi-level scoring threat who has such a pretty release. When her team needed a bucket, her number was called to deliver. She’s solid on the defensive end as well, as her length posed as a threat to many. An awesome kid who had a stellar career on Tennessee hardwoods.

Had a monstrous day where she wouldn’t be denied. Scored 26 points as her team looked for her hot hand early and often. She contributed on the boards, bringing down five rebounds; however, she eliminated their best scoring option by containing them on the defensive end. She’s an exceptional talent who is on a mission to bring back the trophy to her school this senior year. The UVA-Wise signee is dominant scoring threat from multiple levels on the floor. She will be a great addition to a solid program at the next level.

The UVA-Wise signee has trusted the process and has grinded her way into being a solid prospect. A 3-level scoring threat who can get it done on the inside or the outside. Built with toughness, she knows how to utilize her body to exploit defenses. She is confident from afar, shooting from the arc at a high efficiency rate. She has been a big part of the show down there in Richland, and her hard work and work ethic have been felt throughout the program. A great talent who has been sensational throughout her career.

Higgins is a wing with a diversified skill set that’s unlocked with her size. At 5’11, she’s really tough to get a clean contest against. She averaged 19 points at 47% shooting (75 made 3’s on 39%). She’s an incredibly efficient scorer that doesn’t seem to force anything, and lets the game simply come to her. When teams close out too hard against the 3 she’s able to scorer around the rim with a nice combination of size, strength, skill and finesse. She’s a still unsigned senior that will make a college team really luck…

bandwagon after the game film I watched vs a Power 5 kid guarding her. I ordered my jersey on Amazon…it’ll be here Monday.
She’s as skilled a scorer as there is in the state. Her size allows scoring from angles around the rim others simply can’t dream of. She’s not an overwhelming athlete, but she’s like a Luka Doncic. Plays at her own pace, gets to her spots, and score efficiently. Legit 3 level scorer.
She’s been crushing this summer, and her stock has got to be rising amongst college coaches. You simply cannot find scorers like her. Plus, she competes on the defensive end.

Higgins lit it up in LP2 from three. In three games, she knocked down 11 threes at 41%. Her effective FG% was 55%! When she’s on a heater like that, this team becomes so tough, and she continues to prove that she’s a professional bucket getting vs the highest competition. Averaged nearly 14 points per game.

Higgins was another FBC Reign athlete that had a great weekend! One of my favorite plays by Shelby wasn’t the numerous 3 balls that she made with range, it wasn’t the attacks downhill either, or finishing at the rim. She’s great at doing all of those things! My favorite play was her sliding her feet and taking a strong charge against the Vipers! Higgins continues to shoot at a high percentage! She’s a versatile athlete that you can plug in different positions. If you do not have Shelby’s name down on your radar, you need it. Offer this one ASAP!

is a professional scorer. She goes to work….creates buckets. Saturday at Miracle, she had 16 points on 6-8 shooting (91% EFG, with 8 rebounds), and then 13 points on 81% EFG. I love her on this team because it reflects what she’ll be in college: a high level role player that can help on both ends, and rebound the basketball. She was sensational yesterday.

So smart! Watched her get out in transition dribbling left, hold off the defender (I call it putting them in “jail”) with her but, and then finished “and 1” with her right hand. Few kids know how to put a defender in jail….but

special. Incredibly talented scorer. Even when it’s not falling from the outside she finds ways to get easy buckets out in transition, on cuts, etc. And of course, as soon as I wrote that….she hit two straight 3s. She’s a bucket.

had a rock solid weekend. Her consistency is her strength as you always know exactly what you’re going to get. Great energy, effort and attitude….with high level scoring on all 3 level. Plus she’s really turned herself into a high level rebounder. She averaged 8 points, 7 rebounds, 2 steals and a block on the weekend.
