Reiger certainly turned some heads last weekend at The Main Event. The Factory Basketball 2027 star shined brightly as a terrific 2 way player. Reiger showed that she can knock down triples off the catch and can get hot with her jumper. She also proved to be a quick and athletic defender that beat ball handlers to their spot and slowed the dribble drive.
Highlights
Bella Flavin
Bella Flavin
Flavin made a statement and showed the state of Michigan what’s on the way when she enters high school. I was very impressed with the Mystics star’s strong hands, both on the pass catch and on the boards. Flavin didn’t just rebound. She snapped the ball. She’s a smooth post finisher that looks very comfortable working the right block and finishing over her right shoulder. Flavin had numerous put back buckets as well.
Catton definitely caught eyes at The Main Event. She proved to be a very comfortable shooter that needs to be accounted for by the defense. Catton was able to bury triples from corner to corner across the arc and was balanced and very effective on catch and shoot opportunities. She ran the floor well, keeping her head up and spreading the floor while staying pass ready.
Grant was a player being talked about after The Main Event in Grand Rapids. She REAL ly showed a ton of natural point guard skill and upside to go with it. The REAL 16u guard was a leader with the ball in her hands. Grant controlled the pace of the game and kept her turnover numbers very low. She was very comfortable as a primary ball handler and starting the offense with the pass. All that being said, Grant definitely scored efficiently when the opportunity arose.
