Allie Osborne2024 5-11 F Allie Osborne – John Milledge Academy
Coming out of the GIAA, Allie Osborne took full advantage of her much-needed exposure opportunity. The lefty received high marks as a stretch forward with a versatile skill set. Osborne did a good job catching and finishing on the run. She was one of the best rebounders in camp and was comfortable pushing the ball up the floor.  Allie showcased a reliable mid-range jumper and helped space the floor to the three-point line. She didn’t shy away from contact inside and used a soft touch to score around the rim. Osborne proved to be a reliable post defender that could alter shots. Another year of development will go a long way in helping Osborne reach her potential. Improving her foot speed and continuing to challenge herself outside of the GIAA will help her achieve her goal of playing college basketball.

Jasmine Baxter2025 5-10 PF Jasmine Baxter – Galloway
Only a sophomore, Jasmine Baxter was a physical powerhouse that bullied opponents on the low block. Her powerful drop step clears defenders out of the way as she keeps her arms bowed when carving out space. Baxter is extremely comfortable playing with her back to the basket. She posts up with a wide base, giving entry passers an easy target to hit. As the day went on, Baxter began to stretch the floor. She has nice form on her jump shot and will let it fly from beyond the arc. Baxter has the tools to become a D-I post, especially if she can squeeze out another inch or two.

Savannah Robinson-Holmes2025 5-7 G Savannah Robinson-Holmes – Langston Hughes
Maybe the best, most consistent scorer at camp was Savannah Robinson-Holmes. She dumped in 20 points her first game of the day before netting 14 in Game 2 while flirting with a double-double collecting 9 rebounds. Robinson-Holmes is elusive with the ball. She’s a threat to score anytime and anywhere. She sank four threes over her two games while mixing in pull-up jumpers, floaters, drives and putbacks. Savannah’s ability to breakdown the defense and get into the lane will play a big role in Langston Hughes’ success.

Samantha Ambroselli2024 5-5 G Samantha Ambroselli – Centennial
Back from an ACL injury, Samantha Ambroselli looked like she didn’t miss a beat. Sam attacked in a variety of ways, getting to the basket and finishing through contact while also nailing shots from the perimeter. Still a solid playmaker, it looked like Ambroselli was more comfortable hunting her own offense than when I last saw her over a year ago. At 5-foot-5, Sam did a good job as a rebounder as well. Expect a strong statement season for Ambroselli and a sneaky good Centennial backcourt.

Tori Ambroselli2026 5-5 PG Tori Ambroselli – Centennial
Playing alongside her older sister, Tori shined as a playmaker. The rising freshman excelled at attacking downhill as a drive-and-kick facilitator. Tori has quick shifty moves and understands how to draw the attention of defenders before finding the open man. When she looked to score, Tori found points off the dribble from three and could get all the way to the rim on drives.

Alyssa Mullholand2025 5-6 G Alyssa Mullholand – Valor Christian
A regular Top Performer from PRO showcases, Alyssa Mullholand went to work as a lethal perimeter scorer. Alyssa is a difficult cover with her physical strength and deep three-point range. She’s a creative ball handler that gets separation with quick moves. Mullholand is a microwavable scorer that can pour in threes in bunches. When she gets to the hoop she knows how to use her body to score through contact and can finish with either hand.

Kameron Herring2025 5-11 SG Kameron Herring – Woodward Academy
Herring stands out with her length. The long and lanky guard immediately holds upside on both ends of the floor with her wingspan. She has a chance to develop into an impactful defender with great switchability. Offensively, she stripped the nets with her three-point shot.  Once she stretched out the defense, Herring was able to score on drives. She did a great job running the floor in transition and showed the confidence to go coast-to-coast with the ball in her hands.

Asia Bryant2025 5-7 F Asia Bryant – Dacula
I really appreciated how hard Asia played on Sunday. The undersized forward was nonstop on both sides of the ball. She used her body extremely well, converting And-1s as she got into the chests of defenders. Bryant is physical and fleet of foot, quicker than she may look at first glance. She has a burst to the rim and is a willing outside shooter. Asia held her own on defense as a sturdy positional defender that can rebound with toughness.

Kitali Youmans2025 5-7 PG Kitali Youmans – Mt. Paran
Kitali Youmans has enjoyed a strong offseason and on Sunday she may have looked the best I’ve ever seen her. Known for her playmaking and ball handling, Youmans did both while introducing an aggressive offensive mindset. She shot the ball well from three and was able to craft her way to buckets on drives. Kitali’s mature floor game led to robust stat lines, putting up 8 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals in Game 1 followed by 9 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists in Game 2.

Sanai Chisholm2023 5-7 G Sanai Chisholm – Woodville-Tompkins
Up from Savannah, Sanai Chisholm represented the coast well with her toughness from the guard position. The lefty has an underrated handle and likes to stay in attack mode. Sanai has a mixture of strength and speed when getting in the paint. Chisholm is tough to contain once she gets in the open floor.

Jayla Bennett2025 5-3 PG Jayla Bennett – Grayson
There is value in a player like Jayla Bennett. Her IQ and attention to detail is off the charts. While she’s often one of the smallest players on the floor, Bennett still finds a way to stand out by doing the little things – no pun intended. Bennett is a scrappy on-ball defender that moves well laterally and will frustrate ball handlers with her effort. Jayla is fundamentally sound. The true point guard will fake a pass to make a pass. Bennett takes extra strides to find the perfect angle when hitting cutters or making entry passes. Another part of Jayla’s game that stood out was her nose for the ball. She was an outstanding rebounder that snuck in to earn multiple second chance opportunities as an offensive rebounder. Bennett will play a major role in Grayson’s backcourt over the next three seasons and has all the attributes as an unsung hero. She reminds me a little bit of recent Campbell graduate Laila Battle, an All-State guard who is now a freshman at LaGrange.

Sanaa Tripp2024 5-8 PG Sanaa Tripp – Peachtree Ridge
A torn ACL cut Sanaa Tripp’s sophomore season short. Now at Peachtree Ridge, Tripp looks ready to make a major impact at her new home. She showed no signs of rust on Sunday, not even needing a knee brace and hardly breaking a sweat as she picked apart defenses as a passer and scored whenever she pleased. Tripp is a game-changing guard that does everything well.

Jada Williams2023 5-4 PG Jada Williams – Lake Oconee Academy
Jada Williams is no longer an unknown. After winning the Class A-Public State Championship, Williams had even more to prove at camp on Saturday and she did so, turning the heads of college coaches in attendance. Williams is a dynamic athlete. She’s cut with muscle and has a powerful lower half that gives her elite leaping ability. Her bounciness and quickness make her an impact defender. Williams has cat-like instincts, able to change directions swiftly to dart into passing lanes. Jada plays bigger than her size. She had multiple blocks, many on players over 6-foot tall. On the perimeter, Williams sits down in stance and keeps opposing ballhandlers in front of her with relative ease. She’s a vocal leader that communicates consistently on defense. Williams’ motor is non-stop. Offensively she was able to use her first step to blow past defenders and get to the rim. Jada averaged 12.6 points, 7.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 5.5 steals as a junior while hitting 45-140 (32%) from three.  While her height may hurt her at first glance, Williams’ competitiveness and elite athleticism will surely draw the attention of D-III and D-II programs.

Frankee Payne2024 5-4 G Frankee Payne – South Gwinnett
As camp went on, the hotter Frankee Payne got. The high-volume scorer is a human microwave. Once she sees one shot drop, plenty will pile in after. The little lefty loves to pull-up from deep, making her a threat from anywhere along the three-point line. Payne’s jump shot is unquestionably her top weapon, but she also has a nice handle which helps create space on the perimeter. Payne can initiate offense out of the pick-and-roll and hit the slip with tight bounce passes. When Frankee decides to turn the corner on drives, she finishes with skilled scoop layups in traffic. Pound-for-pound, Payne was the best scorer in camp.

Miyah Holmes2025 5-11 W Miyah Holmes – Grovetown
Long term, Miyah Holmes might have the highest upside out of anyone in camp. She made a huge first impression with her length, mobility and skill. Holmes is an inside-out threat. She moves extremely well and is comfortable playing on the wing, creating her own offense off the dribble. For her size and age, Holmes is very smooth getting downhill using her long strides to cover ground. She finishes well inside and is a tough-nosed rebounder. With Grovetown graduating their top two scorers, it’s now Miyah’s team. She should at least double her 5.2 point-per-game average as a freshman. Holmes is a name we will be hearing a lot more of over her final three seasons. College coaches may want to put her on their radar.

Paige Fears2025 5-5 PG Paige Fears – New Manchester
Paige first caught my eye back at the Sandy’s Spiel Fall League a season ago. Her development is right on track as she’s becoming one of the more entertaining playmakers west of Atlanta. Fears has a compact build, but she has some strength to her frame to keep bigger guards from trying to overpower her. Paige can play either on or off the ball. Fears has the ball on a string, with quick and precise dribbles to release from any traps and when she wants to find an angle to attack. She uses a eurostep to avoid defenders on her way to the rim. I liked what I saw out of her ability to read the pick-and-roll. Fears delivers accurate catchable balls to her bigs when rolling. Paige is a dangerous three-point shooter. She can get her shot off the dribble or off the catch. I like her outside shot as her best weapon at this point in her career. With New Manchester graduating their top three scorers, I foresee Fears competently filling the outside shooting void left by India Johnson and the creative playmaking of Kamryn Bates.

Kalisha Phillips2023 5-9 W Kalisha Phillips – Hiram
The wiry wing’s calling card was defense. Kalisha flew around the court guarding a variety of positions. Her length on-ball stifled smaller guards and her quickness to rotate over to block shots erased many scoring opportunities. Phillips’ goal on offense was to get to the rim. Adding a reliable outside shot will greatly help with her development, but Kalisha’s energy and athleticism are enough to positively influence games. She averaged 10.1 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.8 blocks over a breakout junior season.

Chassidy Fedd2023 5-9 G Chassidy Fedd – Valor Christian
Chassidy Fedd closed camp strong, trading buckets with Frankee Payne. Fedd has nice size and length at the guard position. Throughout the day, defenses could never seem to keep Chassidy out of the paint. She impressed by getting to the rim when she wanted but also knowing when to kick out to shooters. When Fedd did decide to take it herself, she absorbed contact and finished And-1s. Chassidy impressed with her outside shot. When she got hot, she was knocking down threes off the bounce, an important shot for her to make to mix in with her slashing skills. Fedd is a sneaky good player hidden in the Freelance league.

Alexcia Murphy2023 5-10 F Alexcia Murphy – Troup County
There are no surprises when it comes to Alexcia Murphy’s game. I’ve seen her play since freshman year and I know exactly what to expect. Murphy is a bulldozer. She’s got an uncanny nose for the ball with a pit bull mentality. Murphy is a tenacious rebounder that overwhelms opponents with her bully-ball play inside. The lefty can start fastbreaks and weave her way coast-to-coast. Murphy is always looking to attack off the dribble. Her range is expanding, as she hit a career-high 14 threes this past season part of her All-State campaign which saw her post 18.1 points, 9.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 2.6 steals and 2.1 blocks per game. Schools looking for a rugged rebounder and downhill slasher will want to circle Alexcia’s name. Her toughness is covetable.

Kendall Davis2024 5-9 G Kendall Davis – McIntosh
Kendall Davis is a strong guard that can play multiple spots. Her physicality and quality size make her an effective rebounder. She likes to push the ball in transition and can catch defenses scrambling in cross matchups. Kendall averaged 11.3 points, 7 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 steals per game as a sophomore. Davis found her offense on hard drives to the basket on Saturday. She hit some tough shots going left, scoring in traffic. As she adds onto her outside shot, it will help keep defenses honest. Kendall holds a lot of value defensively with her ability to help guard multiple positions both inside and out.

Alyssa Mullholand2025 5-6 CG Alyssa Mullholand – Valor Christian
Alyssa has quickly become a favorite at PRO events with her offensive firepower and style of play. She’s a knockdown shooter, both off the catch and off the bounce. Mullholand has a tight handle when attacking the basket and can finish with crafty scoop layups with either hand.

Marlo Simms2023 6-2 C Marlo Simms – Decatur
Marlo is still coming into her own, but she shows flashes of how good she can be. She has a soft touch from 10-feet. She’s at her best when she plays within the flow of the game. Moves come to her naturally when she doesn’t try to over think things. She implements pump fakes well to let defenders fly by and she has a turnaround jumper in the lane.  As the day went on, she found more and more success blocking shots inside.

Girls Analysis

#PRO: Spring Showdown Girls Top Performers

Jayla Cook2022 5-5 PG Jayla Cook – Redan
All gas, no breaks. That is what you get with Jayla Cook. The playmaking guard with the elite motor zoomed around the floor on both offense and defense, impacting games consistently. Cook’s sparkplug play had college coaches circling her name. The stat sheet stuffer didn’t just score downhill, she created for others dropping off no-look passes all throughout camp. Cook’s hustle will go a long way at the next level. She’s a plug-and-play guard that will immediately bring an infectious energy when on the court.

Jada Morgan2023 5-8 CG Jada Morgan – Warner Robins
No one wanted to get in the way of Jada Morgan when she decided to get to the rim. The physical guard bulled her way to the basket, scoring through contact with ease. Morgan excels at getting to her right hand. She challenges shot blockers by going right into their chest. Jada’s pitbull mentality is a hallmark of her game. Not many guards attack the glass like she does. Morgan won’t ever be out-toughed.

Gabby Hudson2022 5-6 PG Gabby Hudson – Pace Academy
There was a buzz around camp surrounding the Region 6-2A Player of the Year. Hudson has a polished game. She pushes the ball and sees the floor well, wrapping passes around defenders to find the open man. Hudson is a crafty finisher that can get shifty downhill. Gabby embraces contact and can kiss floaters off the glass when stopped short. Hudson is a well-rounded scorer that shot 36% from three over the course of her senior season. Expect D-III schools to make a hard push.

Tylia Kemp2022 5-10 W Tylia Kemp – Grayson
Tylia’s play at camp landed her a Carver College offer. Kemp is an inside-out presence. She makes a living in the corners with her three-point shot but is also strong enough to muscle her way to hoops in the paint. Kemp is an impactful rebounder and a capable defender that can help guard multiple positions.

Shakiria Chaney2022 5-9 W Shakiria Chaney – Tift County
Lil Sis came to play on Sunday. Chaney is a strong athlete with an aggressive mindset. She pursues rebounds with vigor and plays bigger than her size. Shakiria has a quick first step. She drives hard and can finish with spins in traffic. When needed, she can knock down the open outside shot but loves trying to get to the paint first.

Marlo Simms
2023 6-2 C Marlo Simms – Decatur
The size and length of Marlo Simms immediately jumps out. She’s a mobile post presence that does a nice job altering shots. Simms cleans up misses and can hit the mid-range jumper. Keep an eye on her development. Simms could be a popular prospect come next year.

Alison Hiddema2023 5-11 F Alison Hiddema – East Forsyth
One of the most improved players in the state, Alison Hiddema quickly made a name for herself after averaging 17 points, 10 rebounds and hitting 75 threes her junior season. Hiddema is a combo-forward that spends a vast majority of her time attacking from the wing. She shoots the three exceptionally well and loves to punish defenders on drives to the basket, powering her way to the hoop while drawing fouls. Hiddema will be a highly sought-after prospect at the D-II/D-III levels.

Taiylor Williams2023 5-7 G Taiylor Williams – Brookstone
A prolific scorer out of Columbus, Taiylor Williams thrived offensively. Williams is svelte of build, but the wiry guard gets to her spots consistently. She’s a three-level scorer that has wiggle off the bounce. She hits the pull-up jumper and has three-point range. Williams finishes with both hands around the rim. Taiylor packs a scoring punch. Colleges will want to get familiar ASAP.

Laila Battle2022 5-7 PG Laila Battle – Campbell
Never doubt Laila Battle. As she has proven throughout the course of her career, Battle simply knows how to get the job done. She’s a dangerous three-point shooter and a smart driver that gets into the paint at will. Laila has an effective eurostep in traffic and sweeps the ball low and strong when gathering herself to finish, avoiding any strip attempts by defenders. During gameplay, she was face-guarded the full length of the floor – something you don’t see often in camp settings. Battle is a tough-nosed defender with quick hands. Laila committed to LaGrange following camp.

Alyssa Mullholand2025 5-6 G Alyssa Mullholand – Valor Christian
Baby James Harden. Alyssa Mullholand is the complete package offensively. She is highly skilled, able to create off the dribble and dissect defenses. Mullholand has a tight handle with a crossover that gets her into the paint. Alyssa uses her size and strength to her advantage as she knows how to draw fouls and finish in traffic against length. Mullholand demands attention from the three-point line as well. It wouldn’t come as a surprise to see her eclipse the 1,000-point mark in her high school career.

Kitali Youmans2025 5-7 PG Kitali Youmans – Mt. Paran
A true point guard with a mature feel, the state champ was able to dictate the tempo whenever the ball was in her hands. Youmans has a smooth approach and understands how to run an offense. She looks to set up teammates first before hunting her own shot. Kitali weaves into the paint and can draw defenders before dishing to open teammates. Youmans makes passes off the bounce with either hand and is slick when driving to the hoop.

Shannon Niles2022 5-6 G Shannon Niles – Brookwood
The savvy senior pushes the ball well in transition, keeping her head up as she hits teammates in stride for open layups. Niles plays at a nice pace and can shift gears accordingly. She has a good-looking jump shot with three-point range. Shannon uses a crossover to beat her first defender and also implements a hesitation dribble. Niles is a good decision maker that can play either on or off the ball.

NeKaya Williams blends skill and athleticism together. She’s an electric slasher that gets to the rim and finishes with both hands. Her defensive instincts on the perimeter help blow up plays and disrupt flow. Williams can crank her motor to where few can go. Her energy helps her impact games on both ends of the floor.
