Continue ReadingEveryone always talks about offense, but the first thing that caught my attention to Jayona was her defensive effort. She has great defensive ball pressure and turned them into steals. Solid guard with good active hands and a smart basketball sense.
This guard has good handles and can get baseline, showing the ability to finish at the rim. Good athlete and plays the game at a good speed with intensity. She is a steady hard working player who has a good mixture of balance and quickness. A player on the rise.
She caught my attention last year and I loved to see her game improve. One thing I like about her game is she plays the game hard from start to finish. Super athletic, plays fast and can score in a variety of ways. She has good handles and such a smooth shooter. Athletic guard with a high basketball IQ. Works so hard and isn’t afraid of physical play.
This was the first time I had seen her play, and she showed me a strong ability to manage the game from the guard spot. She is an effective perimeter shooter with good range and a good release. I look for a solid season this year for Emerson.
Highlights
She is only a sophomore but already shows good traits of a solid player. Kaylie is able to get through contact and finish at the rim with a good downhill game. Plays the game with a nice motor and can defend. Like her court sense and a good basketball IQ.
One thing that I thought she did really well, better than many who were at the event, was show the ability to read and react to plays in advance. She anticipates the game well and gives her team good scoring opportunities. Can defend multiple positions and plays with a good effort.
