What can’t Terry do on the basketball court? She has got a skillset that is quiet impressive. Terry can handle the rock and get where she wants to on the court. She can shoot the long range jump shot off the catch and off the dribble, and the same with the midrange shot. She is very shifty and has the ability to move the defender. She can get down hill in a hurry and can finish with the left or right hand. Terry is a dangerous player in the open court and knows how to score the basketball. She knows how to get to the free-throw line and does not shy away from physical play. At the Candice Dupree Invitational, Terry had some nice plays. The play that comes to mind was on the left side of the court. She attacked the rim and finished with a euro-step and left-hand floater. Defensively Terry also stood out. She was disruptive with good on-ball defense.
Spivey is another high energy player who can run all day, and knock down baskets in the process. She can score in transition, from midrange, from behind the arc, and from the free-throw line. Spivey scored in double digits on Day 1 of the tournament and was in on a lot of scores by her teammates. Spivey runs the floor very well and does a good job of advancing the ball up the court to teammates. Spivey does a good job of penetrating to the goal and does a good job of getting to the free throw line.
Highlights
Noble caught fire hitting multiple 3’s on opening night of the Candice Dupree Invitational Tournament. Her run of threes gave her team a spark in the second half and they went on to take command of the game. Noble is one of the best shooters on the First Coast and she takes that “three-ball” everywhere she goes.
Every time I walk in he gym and see Bautista playing, I stop in my tracks just to see what the young guard is going to do next. She is just that exciting of a player. She was impressive at the PGH event last year and she is just as good as advertised. She can shoot it from all levels of the court and can handle and pass the rock. On Day one of the Candice Dupree Invitational, the smooth guard took a fast break, sliced through the defense and finished with a smooth left-handed layup. When not being spectacular, she is steady. Bautista gets the team in it’s offensive sets and just controls the flow. She was shaken up on night one, but not before making her usual impression.
Highlights
Johnson showed her versatility as a player as she did in an earlier tournament. She is a high energy player who is always around the ball. On opening night of the Candice Dupree Invitational tournament, Johnson filled up the stat sheet in a lot of categories. She scored and rebounded well and made super athletic plays. Johnson has the ability to guard 3 positions on the floor. She can defend on the inside and has the strength and quickness to prevent the wing players from getting in the paint.
Medlock was a standout on Day 1 of the tournament. She has great length and can play the shooting guard position as well as the three and the four. Offensively, she is a slasher with athleticism and quickness to get to the rim. On Day 1, Medlock scored in the paint and stood out with her defensive efforts. She was mixing it up against some quality forwards and delivered an impressive defensive performance. Medlock is a versatile player who can also step out behind the arc and shoot the long ball. She can also handle the ball and get to the rim.
