2022 Iyanna McCown #GPRUnderTheRadar


Certain players just have "it" at a young age and believe me with all of my years of evaluating talent coupled with my GPR CERTIFIED 100% success rate of calling them at a young age, Iyanna McCown blew me away after just completing the THIRD GRADE.

I just love watching her highlight videos and just have to trust me, big things are in store for this young lady and here are some of the reasons why. When you comprehend certain things at an early age, you're ahead of the game and when you continue to work on weaknesses, you're way ahead

When you look at how many different ways she can score right now and the only thing that supersedes that for me was, she plays the passing lane. Oh she's doing all of this playing a year up, so........ watch out!!!!!

2022 Iyanna McCown is definitely getting better

I love this picture of '22 Iyanna McCown because it can be as deceptive as her first step but after observing her almost a year ago, I knew she had some tools and that all important "desire to get better" and here's a glimpse on what she's bringing to the table




Keep in mind she's only in the 6th grade and last year she did plenty of damage playing two years up at  MAYB  Nationals but always remember you can't teach speed and I haven't been wrong about a young player yet, I won't be this time either.

IYANNA is for you in 2022 #UnderTheRadar

I simply amaze myself, no seriously I do because I was watching one of Iyanna McCown's latest videos showing her crossover and keep in mind this young lady has many, many years ahead of her but not only am I liking what I'm seeing, I liked her even back then and after misspelling her name in the ever so important search bar under Iyana, I came up with a story mentioning her from almost two years ago. Anyway, I'll adjust the last name to the correct spelling down the road read more and enjoy the clip

2022 Iyanna McCown on fire over the weekend #GPRUnderTheRadar


Sometimes I'm just in the right place at the right time and when I first caught Iyanna McCown she was only in the 4th grade and she definitely left a lasting impression. I've seen the talented 2020 player in numerous setting and yes she has attended the PassThaBall HoopAHolics camp however over the weekend, she was doing a little something different, helping lead her MS squad to the championship game, in which they won, as she averaged over 17 ppg in the 3 games including the game winner

Lady Warriors have me smiling #HoopAHolicsCamp


The title might be somewhat misleading however I'm just amazed and continuous improvement I see in many of these young ladies I've been watching for 3- 4 years. Whether it was Louisville, Kentucky at the Adidas Nationals a few years ago or somewhere in the Metroplex either in a camp or club tournament, I have probably seen most of the Lady Warriors more times than just about any group. One of their star players, Jasmine Brown, wan;;t in attendance but there was no shortage of players ready to show what they could do

2019

Mikayla Hutchinson- saw star written all over her before I found out she had a BCS sister. She's long and athletic, sees the floor, is very unselfish and with her handle and ability to score.......

Jordan Dotie-good range from long and mid and showed she could create her shot

Sonia Blair-attacks the basket at will, keeps coming at you on both ends, just goes hard at all times

Jordan McGee-definitely caught my eye firing bullets on the money, exceptional speed  and athleticism, definitely ahead of the game

Katera Mays -midrange and finishing with contact are two things that she did with ease


NINA MILLINER




2020

Nina Milliner-impressed from day one simply because of the fight, knows how to run a team and defend plus can score when needed

Alyssa Lafontaine-never takes a play off, loves to and can defend and now she's attacking at every opening and finishing strong

Camryn Hill-anticipated passes, rebounded and showed she could handle the ball under pressure

Jursei Powell- did a good job during skills segment and implemented what she learned in game situation

IYANNA McCOWAN

2021

Vasana Kearney-hustled after everything, loves to defend and created in traffic well

Kendall McGruder-did well in skills, improved on offense, sees floor and can finish with contact

2022

Iyanna McCowan-like Bonecrusher she ain't  "never scared" and although one of the youngest, she definitely left a lasting impression and I'll close with #sizedontmatter and a video clip of her deep three

2020 TJ Showcase Day 2 Tip Sheet

 

BUDA, TEXAS- Day 2 of the 2020 Tyrone Johnson Showcase, #TJShowcase, was dedicated to the younger teams because always remember, #talentiseverywhere and over the years, I’ve had a chance to see countless players who showed they were going to not only play at the next level, but at the highest level of the next level. As an added bonus, I’m coming back and drop something on each team that I saw, thanks for providing me rosters, on my blog and let me also add that I dropped the ball and missed the 6th graders, that’s on me and I apologize but I’ll catch you on the remix. Also, this is why I request having rosters emailed in case there is a discrepancy, like something as simple an incorrect number

2024


Iyanna Billups (Competitive Edge Elite Black)

Billups falls into that #sizedontmatter hashtag I see a lot because she can play. She’s fearless, she attacks the basket and she handles the ball well under pressure but she also does a good job of seeing the floor

Karvi  Madyastha (Competitive Edge White)

Madyashta does a good job at getting to the rim, under pressure and one way she does it is with a nice crossover but attacking is one thing, she also finishes strongly after contact and showed she could create her shot

 


2025

Kayla King (San Antonio Lady Hoops)

King is very athletic and attacks the basket relentlessly yet she also sees the floor and her first step sets up everything because she can also hit teammates going full speed either in the open court or from a half-court set

McKenzie Bernard (Journey 13U)

Bernard has size, she’s athletic and long, no matter how I word it, that’s the base but she can take defenders going baseline or finish strongly after contact. Wen you combine that with a nice pull-up jumper…

Sedelia Wilson (Hays Country Hornets)

Wilson is long and athletic, she’s over the magic number of 6’0 and has scary upside because of her age and how fluid she is as well as her agility. She finishes, rebounds runs the floor and defends plus she has good timing which enables her to block shots

Endia Stigall (Stats Elite)

Stigall has a very nice pull-up jumper in traffic, she’s athletic and attacks the basket strongly but she also understands how to run a team and control the tempo. She sees the floor and even showed the “floata”

Savannah Salinas (AD Elite)

Salinas put on a shooting exhibition from mid to long-range and she did it effortlessly. She’s one of the best young “catch and shoot” players I’ve caught this club season, she creates her shot and can handle the ball

Alaysia Guide (Waco United 2025)

Guide is an athletic point guard that can take defenders anytime she wants, she has a nice first step and can mix it up with a pull-up jumper or just attacking the rim where she also finishes after contact. She creates her shot and defends

Lady Warriors White looked #DYNOMITE @ 2017 Prime Time Nationals #8thGrade

Talk about talented young players and this Lady Warrior White squad has just that. Athleticism, skill set and plenty of energy and fight that it can knock you right out of your sea, I'll get to that later. Jahcelyn Hartfield is a combo guard that does both well, she also defends but her ability to attack, well that first step is something to see. Taylor Smith, Jordyn Bell and Destini Winzer all bring some heat when they hit the floor, parts are interchangeable as they keep coming and when you're long and athletic like Aniya Williams, well she just makes things happen on both ends of the floor, plus she plays the passing lane

That back-court is solid, Iyanna McCown is the lone 2022 on this 2021 squad and it seems like I've been writing about her forever but when I look at the notes, the first time was when she was in the 2nd grade and I just knew something special was coming. She thinks the game and at her age, oh my but on top of that, she already understands how to run a team and when to take a game over and her reverse lay-up definitely was impressive in traffic. Kate Renner and Madison Jones upside definitely is something that I'll be looking at as well as Jayda Howard


I wasn't laughing when Kiyara Howard-Garza leaped over the baseline for a loose ball and knocked me out my seat, I remember a player doing that over 10 years ago and landed on the coaches lap, that got her a scholarship to New Mexico so you can't teach heart, you can't teach passion and she never takes a play off. On top of that, she handles the ball, defends and can hit the three but handling the ball must be a prerequisite to play on the squad because they all seem to do it. Nya Harmon did it so well , she at times appears to be hypnotizing defenders but who knows, she also does a good job at the combo

2022 will be special too


Team Ichiban's talent pool is loaded with more than just next level talent as I witnessed several players that will go on to help an abundance of colleges over the years. I had a chance to watch some of the babies and Iyanna McCown was one of many players I had a chance to watch that were in the FOURTH grade that showed a lot of potential

Briley Perkins Crossover 19′ did some acrobatic things on the floor and watching her hitting off balance shots while receiving contact is major at this age. She did a good job creating and setting up the defense.
