San Antonio Lady Hoops 23/24 #Shooting4DaCure

JAYDA REECE
One more time, #talentiseverywhere is something I've been saying since NO ONE was covering Texas but there are some stipulations A. You know what you're looking at B. You're actually looking

ARIANA RODRIGUEZ

Jayda Reece has already made one of my Tip Sheets, long, athletic and high energy, she has a very huge upside. Ariana Rodriguez was so impressive all weekend, her ability to catch and shoot at this stage is scary, if you're a defender. Mya Guzman also has made a Tip Sheet, she creates issues on both ends including the long ball and speaking of long ball shooting, Mariah Dotson showed me why she won the 3 Point Shooting Competition

Each game someone stepped up at various points and Brooke Bingheim down the stretch on Championship Sunday earned her the GPR Player Of The Game but playing smart and within yourself is sometimes a thing of the past so I just enjoy seeing it consistently. Emery Espinoza hit some big baskets including the long ball while Madison Ortega brought heat on defense and showed she could score as well

SARAH MORALES
Olliana Witchet, Mackenzie Amos and Vivian Gonzalez filled in whatever blanks that were needed throughout the event and watching this squad get after it and fight to the finish in some heated games was definitely something to see and speaking of seeing is believing, Sarah Morales made the Tip Sheet

2019 Prime Time #HTownHustle 7th-9th Grade Tip Sheet

VONNE FORMAN

Plenty of talent was on hand in the younger division at Prime Time Sportz #HTownHustle and if you read what I have in my Twitter profile, the phrase "talent is everywhere" is something I've been saying since the turn of the century when no one was giving Texas players their due, you might want to do your on research and not be misled by the abundance of nonsense that's floating around but one thing I enjoy is catching the young stars in action so here are some of the standouts from the 7th-9th Grade Divisions

Vonne Forman (Shooting Starz) has #BEAST stamped all over her and trust me if she grown to be 5'10 or higher, she's a national Top 100 player and if she doesn't, she definitely will play at the next level. Throwback players always impress me and shew definitely was impressive

Kylie Rivon (Intensity) love her upside, long and athletic, rebounds on both ends and runs the floor but her desire to battle for everything definitely caught my attention

Lily Tankara (Leauge City Lady Phenoms Gold) body and strength couple with size and agility is a good foundation and I'm thinking huge upside with this young lady

JEWEL BRANDLEY

Jewel Brandley (TNBA) grandmother was a basketball star, aunt is one of the best I've seen from the area and before I knew her family, I liked what she was doing. High energy, length and athleticism plus she scored multiple ways

Ryan Drummer (Houston Thunder) where there's THUNDER there's LIGHTNING and her ability to catch and shoot the long ball accurately was one of the best at the event. Oh yeah, she plays the passing lane well, that always makes me smile

Skylar Bellamy  (Just Play Sports) talk about players leaving me speechless but her explosiveness off the floor was definitely a deal sealer on her. Plays under control and goes hard, a nightmare to defend is what she'll be
MICAH ELEGORES

Micah Elegores (Katy Crush 2023) I'm partial to PG's for obvious reasons and I love those who are shifty, see the floor and can score, with either hand and Elegores did all of that

Gwendlyn McGrew (RepsUp) talk about an  impressive upside, she is heading toward 6'0, she's only in the 7th grade, she's athletic, she can handle the ball, she elevates on the jumper and she runs the one, "UH OH" watch out
