Finished the season as the top scorer in the state of NY averaging 43 points and 8 assists per game this past season. Confident, up-tempo floor general that looks to get her teammates involved in transition and get easy baskets. Melious is a natural scorer with a quick release, and can create her own shot or play off the ball as a catch-and-shoot option at the next level. Fearless in the paint, loves to play off the pick roll with a mobile big and is not afraid of contact. Can score from anywhere and any way, and makes it look easy.
Averaged an impressive 39 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists per game. Elite court vision with a natural feel for the game. Loves to push the pace and always makes the right play. Elite step-back shooter with range. Comes off a lot of high ball screens and likes to shoot her mid-range jumper. Plays with great balance and physicality and uses it to her advantage by attacking the paint and finishing.
Skilled, physical post player that cleans up in the paint. Impact player that can handle the ball. Good basketball IQ and versatility allow her to play as a point center at the top of the key where she could be dangerous at the next level. Natural shot blocker with good footwork and high motor. Cleans up on the glass on both ends of the floor. Has nice finishing touch in the paint and looks to utilize her slick post moves near the basket. Will need to get stronger at the next level.
Led Depew to a 19-2 record while averaging 22 PPG, hitting 76 3-Pt shots this season. Like Dolan, Krysztof is a bucket-getter with natural shooting mechanics and lightning-quick release. Think Trae Young. Possesses elite ball handling ability and can beat on and off the dribble with ease while finishing in a multitude of ways. Confident shooter with unlimited range that gives her the ability to create her own shot with her signature running floater, step-back 3, or off a ball screen for a pick and pop in the mid-range.
