Battle at the Hive (OKC) Part 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Battle at the Hive is always a great weekend of basketball in Oklahoma. It means AAU has officially begun for several teams in the state. The 2024 field of teams was loaded with several premier programs playing in this year's event. After 2 days of watching ball I have decided to break down this report into 2 or 3 parts. I positioned myself at the Hive on courts 1-3 so these reports will be on the teams I saw. I am sure I missed many great players and if so please send me your profile and video. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

is a PG that does it all on the court.  The thing that I enjoyed watching or that impressed me was the toughness she plays with on both ends of the court.  Offensively she is a must find type player from the 3 point area as she is a deadly shooter.  A physically player that does not mind contact when attacking the rim.  Several times she used the contact to create space for a nice step back jumper.  A gritting type player that could lead a team in both steals and rebounds from the guard

point guard that can attack the rim aggressively and does not mind contact to get the And 1.  A guard that showed great understanding of reading the next level defense on her drives getting several assists with the drop pass.    A dead on shooter from 3 that does not need much space to get the shot off.  A shooter with great range that is a must find on defense.  The range allows her to attack

nice combo guard that has great handles in the open court.  An aggressive down hill driver on offense that can handle the contact finishing several times.    A very shifty driver that uses a slide step to avoid the charge on the drives.  An all out hustler on defense that creates turnovers and physical enough to win the 50/50 ball  Shooter from 3 point range but also possess a very nice mid range game.  Great lift on her
