It dawned on me there were numerous “Sister Acts” other than the 2 sets from Houston Elite. I’ll come back to the Heroes with their set of sisters, ’22 Donovia Hall Donovia Hall 5'11" | SF Plano East | 2022 State TX -5’10 CG and ’24 Donyia Hall-5’11 PF as well as twins, ’28 Ariele Warren and Ariana Warren who are following in the footsteps of their talented mother and sister but here you go
Cortni Harris-5’5 SG (Houston Elite) Crosby HS 2022
Harris has been one of those players that I immediately paid attention to in her freshman season because of her poise, her ability to create her shot, and the consistency she shot the mid to long-range yet she also showed she could score coming off of the screen and her ability to catch and shoot just keeps getting better, so does her attacking and finishing with either hand, after contact
Yvonne Foreman-5’9 PF (Houston Elite) Kashmere HS 2022
Foreman was so powerful in middle school that I was certain she could be a force in high school and as usual, I was right yet she does things so smoothly that before you know it, she’s flirting with a double-double because she understands how to get hers in the flow, this includes going after offensive rebounds and scoring off of putbacks yet she also rebounds well on the defensive end and her outlet passes are next-level ready, plus she still has upside
Caitlin Harris-5’5 CG (Houston Elite) Crosby HS 2023
Harris is smooth with the ball, handles it under pressure, wait, she handles pressure period but her savviness on running a team, yes she understands how to control the tempo yet she also can push it in transition and hit teammates on the money from 30 feet yet her vocalness on the court and directing traffic is a big plus, so is the fact that she can knock down shots
Breonia Gordon-5’6 SG (Houston Elite) Kashmere 2024
Gordon is going to do some damage with Yvonne at Kashmere, I already see that coming because I see her coming into her own. I remember her l forgetting her warm-up top when she was in the 6th grade and I tried to sell it back to her, that didn’t happen but her game has been “sailing” upwards every year, see how I did that, well you need to see what she’s doing off the dribble as she’s on the verge of being added, you know what, I’m doing because I’m not a novice, I know what’s coming
