For many basketball players the game of basketball is played the entire year. For a large part of the year, most basketball is dedicated to school teams which is mainly in the winter months. Meanwhile, once school ball is over, then many players head into the summer season of basketball with their travel teams. So many games played from girls who play basketball in the state of Oklahoma through the year, eyes have been on the ladies for quite some time. They are consistent in their performances and although they may not always hold statistics in the top for every game. Mainly witnessed from the first live period in Texas, all of these girls are someone worth knowing who they are within Oklahoma girls' basketball for Juniors of Class of 2020.   The Players #24 Bria Woods, Junior, Junior, 5’8, Point Guard, Putnam City North HS, BlueStar Dallas RBL Does moves really well to the basket, I especially love seeing her creative finishes to the basket. She drives very strong to the goal with a lot of momentum and Elevated really well on her lay ups. Gets low on defense and I took high notice how she takes the initiative picks up the point guard.   #32 Trinity Jackson, Junior, 6’2, Center, Jenks HS, OK Federal Ballerz Platinum Nice size body from height and width. She works in the paint to seal the defender extremely really well on the offensive end in order to create space for herself. On the defensive end, this works hard and moves feet to defend while her physicality helps aid her to defend.   #12 Ariyah Smithers, Junior, 5’9, Guard/Forward, Del City HS, Unity Basketball I did not particular see her score many points but the amount of energy she brings to the floor is what makes her special. She crashes the boards, players hard defense and always makes herself a threat with or without the ball. because of her constant movement on the court.   #5 Amia Maxwell, Junior, 5’7, Point Guard, Edmond North HS, OK Swarm Elite-Taylor She is a work horse! Due to her hard work, she seen doing positive work. She works so hard on both ends which keeps her involved with many of her teammates. She does not force the ball for shots and anything she does, you can see her energy at 100. If we rated individual and team efficiency for high school players, she holds a high number.
