It seems her return is just what the doctor ordered. If anything, the injury allowed Brewer to become more of a scorer. She had to be a scoring threat because they were short-handed. That said, it all starts on the defensive end of the floor for her. She is one of the best on ball defenders in the state and has racked up a single season steals record along the way. She is a threat from three and can hit the pull-jumper from mid-range. She is a threat to get an unconventional double double any given night with points, steals, and or rebounds and assists.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63f2732b2c8b6"} /-->
