Addy Ewing-5’11 C (Oklahoma Utmost Basketball 2025) 2024
Ewing made not be related to J.R. yet she showed me a whole lot of “taking over” when needed. She uses her body well, she finishes after contact and she rebounds on both ends, so what else impressed me, she dropped the long ball
Addy Ruffin-5’7 SF (Missouri Flight 2025) 2025
Ruffin may not be related to David yet she was smooth as silk with authority as she battles and outrebounds taller players, attacks the rim strongly, and finishes after contact but watching her do 2 things, create her shot and knock it down, mid to long-range was nice
Mattie Zingg-5’11SF (Missouri Flight) 2025 (2026)
Zingg is playing up, she’s long and athletic, remember that’s the base I use and what grabbed me before she played was her wearing #99 and I asked her was she a fan of Get Smart, she didn’t know what I was talking about and I said the guy with the shoe phone, still didn’t get ti but she showed me off the top she could drop it from long range as well as take defenders off the dribble, the icing on the cake was her timing on defense
Tatum Howlingwater-5’10 C (Southwest Elite 2025) 2025
Howlingwater maneuvers around the basket nicely and with the nice “hands and footwork” combination, she finished well and this includes after the lick yet I was more impressed with her defense as her lateral movement was good, as well as her rebounding but don’t get it twisted, she stepped out and dropped it, even one from BTA
Graci Satterwhite-5’6 G (Platinum Basketball 2025 Bodus) 2026
Satterwhite impressed me diving on the floor early, I love throwback stuff and when you add that she “battles for everything” as well as did a good job defending, she also showed she scored, double digits in one of her games as well as drop the long ball, OMG she’s playing up, noted!
Olivia Linder-5’7 SF (Tulsa Hawks 2025) 2025
Linder is long and athletic, see above, and watching her not only fight for positioning but elevate to grab rebounds was nice, so were her putbacks but she attacks the rim strongly and finishes acrobatically and with her nice first step, she has the making of a nightmare to defend type player, especially since she dropped the long ball
Landrie Polk-5’5 G (Platinum Basketball 2025 Sissney) 2025
Polk was the epitome of consistency as she was around double digits every game, she dropped a 3 every game, she played within herself and understood how to get hers in the flow but she handles the ball well, sees the floor well, and understands the game, really well
