Continue ReadingToday was the last day of competition in he Battle in the Big Friendly. I saw alot of players leaving it out on the floor but these 7 young ladies stood out for multiple reasons to the games I watched. Either by scoring, defense, energy and hustle.
First let me say I enjoyed the energy Rian played with. A true PG that leads her team on offense and defense. A quick guard that used the change of speed to get by her defender reading the defense to make a great decision. Defensibly she is low to the ground in her stance and quick laterally making it hard for someone to get by her.

A combo guard that score by hitting the outside and mid range shots. The games I watched today she was a dominate force inside for her team. Great hands, strong post up and nice footwork allowed her to go to work with her back to the basket. Great understanding on defensive rotation allowed the guards to pressure out knowing that she was there to help. Today she seemed unstoppable in the post which made her stand out

A guard with great lenght that can play 1-3 positions on the floor, Offensively a very smooth player that just had a calmness about the way she played. Strong skill set that can hit you for a 3 or attack the rim off the dribble, A type of player that can defend inside grab a rebound and score going coast to coast. On defense her length and quick feet made her hard to get around, Just her versality on both ends of the court made her stand out
Strong physical player that can play anywhere from the 2-5 spot on the floor. On offense she showed why. In the offensive end she worked a smaller player inside and adjusted to the bigger defender by going outside knocking down several 3 in the 2 games I watched. Defensively she understand the games by rotating on help and contesting several shots.
Ryan is a scorer that can do it from either hitting the 3 or taking her defender to the basket, In one of the two games I watched she went on a 11-0 run by herself. An aggressive player when attacking the basket who is able to take the hit finishing with a layup or free throws Ryan is a difference maker for her team by the multitude of things she does.

Remember the name Tylee Moore folks she will be a force to deal with in the upcoming years. Great size and uses it well to demand the ball in the low block.. Soft hands and the ability to release from her post up to gather in a bad pass if needed. Nice touch off the glass finishing at a high percentage, Defensively showed discipline by being a wall and not jumping committing unnecessary fouls. Lastly did I mention she is a 2031 playing up
Alaia is a complete PG that was consistent all weekend for her team. Great handles and smart decisions against the press teams were applying. In the half court set she controlled the tempo for her team as the PG Knock down several from the outside in the games I watched. A solid defender that created many steal by pressing the other teams ball handler. As mentioned very consistent player that showed composure under pressure
