On Sunday at the I-35 showcase, these wings made sure to light it up beyond the 3pt line! From catch and shoot, off the dribble, beginning of the game, end of the game, check out who and how these players impacted the showcase.   [player_tooltip player_id='396069' first='Aja' last='Spencer']- Aja slowly growing into her personnel and establishing herself as a 3 and D player wherever she goes, her corner 3 is starting to become her signature. Helping her team get the stop on the defensive end and finding her guard to bring it up, she sprints to the corner and waits for her man to help off to hit the 3.   [player_tooltip player_id='396405' first='Alana' last='Shetlar']- Shetlar, the shooter with recent D1 offers, showed up to the showcase looked to show off her shooting ability. Her 6'1" frame and her ability to move as a guard makes her a huge threat on many levels. Her ability to shoot the ball with a quick release at her size separates her from the rest. The way she gets her shot off in the flow of the offense is impressive, a simple down screen and pop right into her shot has to be one of the highlights of the day. Alana will definitely continue to get better and continue to put on a show.   [player_tooltip player_id='335922' first='KaMyra' last='Barber']- Kamyra can flat out shoot it and knocks it down. From the start of the game to the end of it she can knock it down and has unlimited range on her jumper. Her ability to create her shot is outstanding and contesting her shot isn't enough to stop her. What she shows for her sunrise team and her Kansas bluejays team, just being a sophomore she plays much mature with minor mistakes made on the offensive end. You can tell that with time she's only going to get better and be lighting it up for someone at the college level. Barber is one that could thrive in the receiving pin down screens and flare screens to free her up to score.   [player_tooltip player_id='191470' first='Avery' last='Lowe']- The senior Avery at 6'3" can shoot it and causes mismatches for other wings/post. Her ability to step out and shoot the 3 consistently requires other "bigs" to step out which most aren't comfortable with which results into them stepping out too late. Lowe is one you want on your team for sure, if there isn't a big on her then she's shooting over the top of smaller wings, resulting in a long night for them because they can't contest.   Ja'Nisha Caldwell- Caldwell showed her potential Sunday no questions asked. What stood out were 2 things: 1. Her athleticism, you can tell based on how she runs and moves that she has athleticism she hasn't tapped into yet. 2. Her shooting ability. Defense fell asleep multiple times resulting in her being wide open, what scouts and coaches were looking to see is if she could shoot it and she could. Not only did she hit 1 wide open 3 but multiple in a row. No taunting on the way back just a good sprint back to the defensive end. This is one you want to have on the radar.
