Easton McCullough
Easton McCullough
McCullough is “long and athletic” which is the base and she has some impressive upside. She attacks strongly off the dribble, nice body control on her finishes, even after the lick, plus her defense, both in and outside the paint was solid
Kyndall Smith
Kyndall Smith
Smith is also long and athletic with some, how can I say this, scary upside. She has good timing to block, alter and (or) deflect shots right now, she stays under control on both ends and her interior defense was really good. She elevates over defenders to score around the basket, she also runs the floor
Summer Crabtree
Summer Crabtree
Crabtree comes from a long line of talented players, starting with her mom yet I’m sure watching her sisters over the years is why her comprehension of the game is way ahead of her years. Peep this, she outrebounded taller players by getting positioning under basket yet don’t get it twisted, she also showed she could drop the “catch and shoot” while being defended
Berkley Smith
Berkley Smith
Smith is already showing pressure is irrelevant her poise stood out by handling the ball as well well as making the right decisions. She also does a good job creating her shot and getting it off, but she gave me a glimpse of her mid to long range as well as using the “catch and shoot” on both
Charlotte Morgan
Charlotte Morgan
Morgan uses her frame around the basket well, on both ends and she too does a good job of getting position and outrebounding taller players. Her interior defense was solid, her lateral movement is nice and she scored around the basket
Zamiya Johnson
Zamiya Johnson
Johnson is a “long and athletic” guard and her first step is going to create some problems down the road. She attacked the basket from multiple angles, she finished strongly after contact, body control played a part in that, yet she also dropped it from outside and showed the “catch and shoot”
Dnihla Ornelas
Dnihla Ornelas
Ornelas is a #sizedontmatter player because she can play. She immediately grabbed my attention applying “on the ball” pressure baseline to baseline and kept it by handling the ball and seeing the floor. She threaded the needle and hit teammates “on the money” numerous times
Azilee Ornelas
Azilee Ornelas
Ornelas showed she could score off the dribble as well as drop it from outside, dropping the mid to long-range. She also made good decisions and did a good job defending
