Alease Heath
Alease Heath
Alease has excellent length and good hands. She picked up the drills rather quickly and has a nice touch around the basket.
Maliyah Coleman
Maliyah Coleman
Small and tough point guard with solid fundamentals. She can finish with both hands and has a strong handle. She has all the passes in her bag and usually delivered the ball accurately to her teammates.
Good shooter with some impressive hops. Finished in the lane with both hands and her athleticism stood out.
Quick guard with a strong first step and some length. She consistently gets into the paint where she has developed a knack for finishing at the rim. She’s a solid on ball defender with good lateral quickness. If she develops a consistent perimeter shot she can contribute at the next level.
McKenzie Byrd
McKenzie Byrd
McKenzie showed off some good, soft hands and the ability to finish around the basket. She has excellent footwork and crashes the boards aggressively.
Maya has a strong motor and a good IQ. She is a solid on-ball defender and has good ball handling skills.
Starr is a tough combo guard that has deep range on her shot. She is able to get to the rim and finish, and when she adds more mid-range to her game she will go to the next level. She has the physical tools to stand out this summer. I would like to see her get more engaged-on defense to complete the package.
Flower Dorsey
Flower Dorsey
Flower is a gifted athlete who I would like to see more of in a game situation. She’s a good rebounder for her size and has good instincts on defense.
