UPDATED-Legitimate Next Level Unsigned 2023 Players
Tons of UNSIGNED players go unnoticed for so many reasons nowadays, other than they are NOT next-level players.
The parents think that going to EXPOSURE events assures their daughters of being seen yet the way this stuff is set up, there is NO WAY college coaches can see everyone, especially since those types of games are being played more times than not at MEGA facilities including convention centers that have 25 to 100 games going at one time
This whole exposure deal has changed, my daughter had over 100 D1 offers and the largest venue was at Alario Center (Basketball On The Bayou) which expanded to 6 courts her junior year after having 4 courts the previous 5 years in which she attended.
By the way, she won a WNBA Championship with the Las Vegas Aces this season as well as National Championship with Texas A&M in 2011
I added a couple of videos that were done on my daughter’s run this season, as well as her journey and it’s on my website, as well as many of her highlights
I am the FIRST person to cover girls’ basketball in Texas, you have several, yet I am a REAL EVALUATOR. I don’t follow SHOE teams over and over, I know several players on those so-called TOP squads that were outplayed numerous times by players I have continuously written you about. There are LEGITIMATE next-level players that can play D2, NAIA, D3 or Juco
I attached their Twitter accounts, click on those links, they have highlights on there
Jada Fields [2022] @jadafields4x
5’8 CG and was a 4-year varsity player at North Crowley, she graduated in 2022. She signed Kansas Wesleyan University however she had an injury early in the season but is ready to return to the court. She was a dual credit student in HS. She graduated HS with 18 credits and her GPA was 4.0 and she graduated in the top 20% of her class.
Baylee Mitchell (North Crowley) @underrated_bay
5’9 SG makes good decisions on shot selection and understands how to not only set the defender up, she has a deceptive first step, but she also creates her shot under pressure. Speaking of pressure, she’s been wanting the ball down the stretch and knocking the mid to long-range down since I first caught her in middle school and she delivers but she also plays solid defense and rebounds
Aniyah Sanford (Langham Creek ) @Aniyah2023
5’6 PG that has progressed each year I’ve been watching her since elementary school. She plays taller than her listed height, she has outrebounded players over 6’0 because of her jumping but just as important is she understands how to control the tempo and get her teammates involved. She also can drop the mid to long range
Keely Cummings (LaPorte) @keelycummings11
5’7 PG who sold me as a 3rd grade. One of the fiercest competitors I’ve seen and also one of the best CLUTCH shooters in the state from long range. She handles the ball under pressure and does a good job directing traffic. Court vision is another huge plus
Eryn Lloyd (Langham Creek) @e_lloyd05
5’5 PG has also shown progression each season since I first caught her. Initially, her “on the ball” defense stood out, she’s one of the top defensive guards in the state yet she’s explosive off the dribble, she does a good job distributing, and her outside shot is now a threat as well
Macie Whitfield ( Deer Park) @macie_whitfield
At 5’8 Whitfield was called THE GLUE by me during the club season as she held everything together. She understands how to get hers in the flow yet she finds ways to change the momentum, either taking a charge or finishing strongly after contact. She drops the midrange and that glue has her team as one of the tops in the area
Elizabeth Walton (Village School) @Elizabethw2023
5’7 CG was tagged “an and one” waiting to happen in the 8th grade. She sets the defender up nicely, nothing fancy is needed, she just gets the job done and her powerful finishes after contact combined with her ability to knock down the mid to long-range with ease.
Mia Winston ( Maumelle) Arkansas @MiaWinston18
Winston is 5’9 and when I saw her a few years ago, her pull-up jumper was deadly. Fast forward to now, I was right but other than her creating her shot under pressure and elevating over the defender to drop it, mid to long range, she also scores off the dribble and does a good job seeing the floor and defending
