<p>[player_tooltip player_id='945413' first='Anyla' last='Parker'] #1 (2029) caught my eye from the beginning of the game until the end and she is one impressive player on the courts. She can get to the rim and she has the ability to make the basic layup or make difficult finishes look easy. Her versatility as an offensive player allows her to step behind the arc and shoot the three with ease. Parker is definitely a three level scorer and has a sweet three point shot. She has a high IQ on the floor and knows how to utilize her team to set up the open three for herself or teammates. Her speed on the court was also very impressive. Defensively, she has the ability to force the ball handler to the weaker hand and cut off driving angles. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='788718' first='Sumayah' last='McIntosh'] #21 on the court playing smothering defense and if she didn't score a single point, that athleticism and defense would still impact the final outcome. McIntosh has the full package though, and she can play on the offensive side of the floor as well. She attacks the rim and is a very good playmaker on the floor. McIntosh can also pass the ball. She sets up her bigs in the paint by drawing the defense and delivering the pass in good scoring position. She has zing and accuracy on her passes in the open court as well. McIntosh really attacks the offensive glass and has a nice midrange shot in the paint. On press break, she can handle the ball with both hands and can maneuver pass the defense. She ranks high on the list as far as athleticism goes and her game and ball IQ are equally impressive. On transition defense, she competes and does not give up an easy shot. </p>
