HYPE Lady Hoopers 17u – An Inside Look

The HYPE Lady Hoopers 17u squad will be competing in the Run 4 The Roses Classic. They will bring a talented roster that college coaches will want to see over the weekend. Here is a look at their roster: <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="138353" first="Precious" last="Fields"] (2021, SG, Detroit Cass Tech)</strong> Fields is a must see prospect. She is, in my opinion, one of the top perimeter defenders in the state. Fields will have an impact in some way, in every game. <strong>Jaylah Franklin (2022, F/C, Wayne Memorial)</strong> Franklin is a true post player that is at her best with her back to the basket. She initiates contact looking to box out on the shot. Franklin has a relentless demeanor when crashing the boards. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="138382" first="Audrianna" last="Hill"] (2021, SG, Detroit Renaissance)</strong> Hill will be fun to watch at the Run 4 The Roses. In Detroit Renaissance style, she knows how to play and defend every square inch of the court. Hill is an energy player that can spark her entire team. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147755" first="Raigan" last="Lawrence"] (2022, CG, Avondale)</strong> Lawrence brings skill and versatility to the backcourt. She can play on or off the ball, whatever her team needs at a given moment. Lawrence is a solid ball handler that keeps turnovers to a minimum. <strong>Maliyah Martin (2022, F, Detroit Cass Tech)</strong> Martin is a rising prospect out of Detroit. She is a versatile forward that can play inside-out or outside-in. This is very valuable on an already strong defensive roster. <strong>Jakyra McCarty (2021, PF, Detroit King)</strong> McCarty is one of the better post prospects in Detroit. She’s a long and vertical athlete that can protect the rim. McCarty is also very active on the glass. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="138410" first="Ndidiamaka" last="Ndukwe"] (2021, SF, Summit Academy)</strong> Ndukwe is a big time player from a smaller school. She has length, athleticism, and ball skills. Ndukwe can attack the hoop from the wing off the dribble. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="138366" first="India" last="Respress"] (2021, G/F, Chandler Park)</strong> Respress has a large toolbox full of skills. She does a lot of things well, so adds a lot to a roster. Respress is a definite plus on the defensive end. <strong>Avery Tolstyka (2021, CG, Northville)</strong> Tolstyka adds a dangerous shooter to the mix. Defenses will have to respect her jumper this weekend. Tolstyka also provides ball handling and versatility to the backcourt. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
