The 2021 Nike Girls EYBL Nationals kicked off this week in Augusta, GA. The event welcomes the 32 Nike Sponsored travel programs from across the country. We got a chance to check out the Miami Suns and Essence Girls Basketball 17U and 16U teams as they are the two Nike sponsored programs in the state of Florida. Here are the standouts from the afternoon session of day 1 and some day 2 players that performed well.
2022
Amiya Evans Amiya Evans 6'2" | PF DME Academy | 2022 State FL – 6’2 Forward – Miami Suns 17U Team Fowles
Strong post that has mass and is a major presence in the paint. She has a really good lower base and is a load down low. When she establishes herself on the block, she is impossible to move! Big-time, big-time rebounder. High major D1 college prospect.
Sydney Shaw Sydney Shaw 5'9" | SG DME Academy | 2022 State FL – 5’9 Guard – Miami Suns 17U Team Fowles
Plays as a scoring point guard but more of a natural combo guard as a college prospect. She can play with the ball but is also very effective off the ball. When she catches ball on the wing and in scoring positions, she is dangerous! Capable of being instant offense at any moment in the game going on 6, 8, 10-0 run by herself!
2023
Rhema Collins Rhema Collins 6'2" | SF Webb(TN) | 2023 TN – 6’2 Wing / Forward – Miami Suns 17U Team Fowles
Major stock riser of the spring / summer. Has gone from unknown to picking up a number of high major D1 BCS offers. Originally from Bahamas, she is legit 6’2 and is very versatile and athletic.
Reina Green Reina Green 5'10" | CG St. Thomas Aquinas | 2023 State FL – 5’9 Guard / Wing – Miami Suns 16U Team Larkins
Potential! Potential! Potential! Strong guard with super solid frame that has a college ready body. She has a big-time upside! Green has one of the biggest verticals I have seen on the road this spring/summer and she does a great job rebounding from the perimeter position.
Aicha Keita Aicha Keita 6'1" | SF Miami Country Day | 2023 State FL – 6’1 Wing – Miami Suns 16U Team Larkins
Very, very long wing/forward. Game is raw but has a ton of potential as she grows into her body, gets stronger, and becomes more coordinated. Her length and wingspan allow her to get hands on a ton of balls!
Sofia Mendez – 5’8 Guard – Miami Suns 16U Team Larkins
Skilled, scoring guard who can play both the 1 and the 2. She has a high basketball IQ, plays smart, and is a good decision maker. She has an efficient floor game, shoots a high percentage from the field, and has a scorers mentality.
2024
Kamryn Corporan Kamryn Corporan 5'3" | PG St. Thomas Aquinas | 2024 State FL – 5’5 Guard – Miami Suns 16U Team Larkins
Skinny, slender, athletic scoring point guard. Her slight build causes her to struggle vs bigger/stronger players but she has an explosive first step. She is a savvy scorer who knows how to attack the basket off the dribble and get to the rim.
Sanaa Tripp – 5’8 Point Guard – Essence Girls Basketball 17U TipHayes Purple
Quick, small, steady guard who pushes the tempo and is aggressive attacking the rim in transition. She was impressive today. Playing 2 years up in 17U she is a quick, steady guard who pushes tempo. Good in open court with breakdown 1v1 moves.
Trinity Turner Trinity Turner 5'7" | CG Dr. Phillips | 2024 State FL – 5’6 Point Guard – Essence Girls Basketball 17U TipHayes Purple
Really talented young guard. Her combination of quickness and athleticism combined with a skilled offensive skill set and aggressive play is impressive. Explosive step with major scoring ability. High major college player! Major scoring ability. Love her game!
