2023 5-10 PF Samara Saunders – Grayson – Team Huncho Nxt Gen
Physical post presence that defends bigger opponents extremely well. Gets after it on the glass. Converts putbacks inside. Will occasionally put the ball on the floor. Showed off extended range, stretching the floor to the three-point line.
TEAM 6

2024 5-6 PG Jasmine Perez – Centennial – ATL Cagers BlueChip
Well-rounded three-level scorer. Missed her sophomore season after transferring from Chattahoochee. Creative handle. Gets to her spots. Can go both left and right equally well.

Put on a show in the one-on-one station. Moves well without the ball. Great length helps her harass smaller ball handlers. Big guard with big upside.
2024 5-7 W Sally Bullard – Athens Academy – Lady Aces
Physical perimeter player that uses her size to get into the paint. Knocks down the baseline jumper and has three-point range. Getting to the rim more efficiently will be an area of growth over her next two seasons. Showed promise with a strong spin move downhill. Stood out with her toughness on the backboards.
2023 5-9 G Kirklyn Porter – Dawson County – Peak Performance Webb
Strong body with deep three-point range. Spaces the floor extremely well. Shoots the ball off the bounce and can torch teams on catch-and-shoot looks. Vocal leader for her team. Tough-nosed with high IQ.
2023 5-11 PF Kate Jackson – Lumpkin County – EOTO
Skilled low post presence that scores with either hand. Seals deep in the paint. Has good footwork whether drop stepping into the lane or using an up-and-under. Soft touch inside. Uses her body to her advantage, playing a physical brand of basketball. Blocks out well. Stretch-four with her three-point range.
2023 5-11 F Alison Hiddema – East Forsyth – North GA Magic
Class 3A Most Improved Player averaged 17 points, 10 rebounds and nailed 75 threes this year. Strong downhill when attacking from the wing, drawing fouls and converting through contact.

2025 5-11 PF Jaleia Robinson – Woodland-Stockbridge – FBC Supreme Team
Bright young post with a strong body. Sets heavy screens and moves very well for her size. Will put the ball on the floor and attack from the high post. Scores with her back to the basket and is an effective offensive rebounder that earns her team second chances.
TEAM 7
2024 5-5 G Alex McElroy – Harrison – E33 Eagles
Quick and athletic lead guard. Did a good job mixing in her own offense with getting others involved. Shot the three well over top of screens. Defended without fouling. Will see an increased role at Harrison next season.
2023 5-5 PG Lexi Pierce – Lumpkin County – EOTO Black
Great three-point shooter with a quick release. Scores the ball off the bounce and off the catch. Likes to pull-up in transition from beyond the arc. Active defender earns steals. Smart decision maker in transition that sees the floor well. Finishes around the rim with both hands. D-II and D-III schools had her name circled.
2026 5-7 W Mayzie Nelson – Lanier
Young wing that also plays around the rim. Provides toughness. Plays hard and can help defend multiple positions. Showed an understanding of how to feed the post. Runs the floor.
2023 5-8 G Brinkley Kate Reed – Coahulla Creek – North GA Thunder
Aggressive slasher that uses her quickness to slice through the defense. High motor hustler shoots well from the outside. When defenders step out to guard her from beyond the arc, she blows by and draws fouls. Had a breakout junior season averaging 21.3 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals.
2023 5-9 W Ellie Cook – Fannin County – North GA Thunder
Wiry athlete that makes an impact with her defense. Can defend any perimeter position on the court. Runs the floor in transition and can catch and finish on the move. Will hit the outside jumper and can play make for others on drives.
2023 5-11 W Brooke Moore – North Cobb Christian – FBC Bouncenation
College coaches identified Brooke Moore as a high upside prospect right away. The Class A-Private All-State wing has all the tools to take over games in a variety of ways. Moore shot the ball well off the bounce and was able to turn corners to finish all the way at the rim. Brooke is a reliable three-point shooter. She’s a smooth slasher that can drive and kick to open shooters. Defensively, she can guard 1-5 with her elite length and athleticism.
2024 5-7 G Ellie Southards – Rabun County – EOTO
Back from an ACL tear that cost her her entire sophomore season sans a brief appearance in the Elite Eight, Ellie Southards was one of the most dynamic scorers in camp. The strongly built guard showed off a tight handle when combatting pressure, going between the legs and behind the back in one fluid motion. She got to her spots with the mid-range pull-up and dropped in tear drop floaters against bigger defenders. Southards used her strength to battle for position on the offensive glass and converted multiple putbacks. Defensively, Ellie was able to body up and play a physical style. For her first extended game action in months, Southards looked incredibly impressive with her robust offensive display.

2025 5-10 PF Kaliya Walker – Vidalia – ATAP
Young southpaw with a strong body. Can play a power game in the low post and on the glass but also has a soft finesse touch. Seals well and scores with baby hook.
2025 5-10 PF @KaliyaWalker (@Vidalia_WBB) with a nice soft touch inside. Physical player with a finesse game as well.

2025 5-8 W Lilly Purcell – Prince Avenue
Strong lefty with good shoulders. Played with poise and toughness. Physical finisher that gets into the lane as she bumps off defenders. Mature feel and a good understanding of defensive principles.
2023 5-9 SG Amelia Shoemaker – North Hall – DL Impact
Long guard. At her best in catch-and-shoot scenarios. Good three-point range. Runs the floor. Adding weight will help her get to the basket more consistently. Can disrupt passing lanes.
2024 5-8 G Kendall Davis – McIntosh – Georgia Pearls
Big guard that uses her strength to get into the paint. Does a good job seeking contact. Spends time at both point guard and shooting guard. Responded well to tough coaching. Has upside as a playmaker.

2025 5-9 W Kennedi Jones – Harrison – Team Tre
Freshman with a versatile future. Uses her strength well to defend bigger posts. Brings toughness to the floor. Improving her ball handling and perimeter shot will help her transition to the wing full-time over the course of her career. Scored around the rim and got on the glass.
2023 5-10 W Mary Mullinax – Lumpkin County – Peak Performance Webb
Class 3A Player of the Year made more believers out of everyone at camp. The state champ was a vocal leader for her team, making sure everyone was matched up defensively. Swiss Army Knife played with an elite motor, defending the entire length of the floor and getting on loose balls. Attacks well off the dribble, gets into passing lanes and distributes efficiently. Averaged 17.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 3.6 steals and shot 35% from three during her breakout junior season.

2025 5-11 F Kayla Cleaveland – River Ridge – Team Tre
Polished inside-out freshman that can score all over the floor. Strong hands help her collect rebounds in traffic and finish with her powerful frame through defenders. Helps handle the ball on the perimeter and consistently hits the three. High IQ and receptive to coaching. High upside as a future mismatch double-double machine. Multisport standout averaged 8.2 points and 5.2 rebounds in Year 1.

— Kyle Sandy (@KyleSandy355) March 20, 2022
2024 5-9 W Gaby LoPresti – North Cobb Christian – Wood Elite 2024
Aggressive scorer didn’t try to do too much. Was able to get into the lane with a sneaky good first step and finish with floaters in traffic. Did a great job offensive rebounding from her guard position. Uses her physicality to defend multiple frontcourt spots.
2022 5-10 W Tylia Kemp – Grayson – FBC Legacy
3&D unsigned senior. Plays physical on both ends of the floor as a defender and rebounder. Cashes in the corner three at a high rate. Brings toughness and experience. A bit of a tweener between being a wing or a stretch-four. Combo-forward will provide value wherever she lands.
2023 6-3 C Aaliyah Hunt – Peachtree Ridge – ATL Cagers BlueChip
Physically imposing post with D-I future. Sets up shop on the low block and can bury opponents underneath the rim. Has a soft touch and does a good job earning multiple chances on the offensive glass. Deceptively nimble in the open court when pushing the ball. Maintaining her stamina will help her dominate consistently. Arguably the best center in Class 7A this past season averaging 18.3 points, 14 rebounds and 2.7 blocks per game. All-State selection.
