Just look at the numbers: 19.3 on 46%, on high volume of shooting. I was surprised that she only him 60 3’s (on 40% which is awesome!). Then I saw the most impressive stat: 163 FTs made on 86% shooting. She hit more FTs than any other ’24 on the list I was looking at. This means Masingale is a multidimensional player not just settling for jumpers. She’s constantly look to get down hill and attack.
Jones has about the most impressive high volume stats out there: 27.4 points per game. Her efficiency numbers aren’t break, but she’s is just a naturally gifted scorer that knows how to go get hers when she needs to. Just simply gifted.
Avery is a multidimensional scorer that averaged 18.6 last year on 42% shooting. She was asked to take A LOT of contested two’s this year, and her team will hope to get that 42% up. She also only hit 52 3s on 28% shooting. This tells me that once she become’s a more consistent shooter, she’ll create a lot more room to operate. It’s actually impressive she scored 18.6 on those efficiency numbers. There is a ton of room for growth.
Love these old school numbers for the 6’1 post: 18.5 points on 65% from the field. That is just lights out. To throw it into the post and know your odds of scoring are 66% it changes the game. Plus, she shot 63% on 81 made FTs which was a fairly number for her position.
Mains managed to put up 18.3 on 45% shooting while coming back from an injury. She also hit 91 3s on 44% efficiency. Those numbers are just off the charts. Mains is as gifted a scorer as there is out there.
