LBI Carolina Jamfest was certainly a fun event to watch all ages compete at high levels. Here are some of the class of 2022 standouts from day 2. [player_tooltip player_id="219809" first="Abriel" last="Thrash"] | Lady Attack Elite 2022 Grey | SF Thrash was having herself a game scoring on all three levels. She has shown off her three point shooting ability, and she makes smart cuts to the basket, especially in transition. She is patient when making her passes making sure the play has developed. On defense, she knows how to smack the ball away from her opponents gaining possession. [player_tooltip player_id="116890" first="Indya" last="Nivar"] | Carolina Flames EYBL Morris | G Nivar (pictured above) is a hustler anticipating passes and jumping into passing lanes with her speed. She hustles back on defense blocking shots in transition. She knows how to create separation from her defenders to show off her jump shot. She drove through contact showing no fear going full steam ahead. She is aggressive going after rebounds, too. Nyah Wilkins | Carolina Dream | F Wilkins takes long strides to get up the court faster than her opponents, especially when she grabs a steal, and she’s looking for some points. She does well making moves to throw her defenders off before turning to the basket to score. She runs the floor well looking for passes in transition. She is persistent when it comes to scoring fighting for offensive rebounds and using various moves with her feet to get to the basket. [player_tooltip player_id="116891" first="Imani" last="Lester"] | Carolina Flames EYBL Morris | C Lester knows exactly how to move her body to score some points. She elevates over her opponents to put the ball through the hoop. She is patient knowing when to make her moves, and she can score through contact making old fashioned three point plays. It seems impossible to grab a rebound away from her.
