<p class="text-gray-700">Washington has a college-ready frame, and showing she could do multiple things was a plus. Her hands and footwork to score around the basket were nice, as were her rebounding and running the floor on both ends. She has good court vision she made a bounce pass in traffic between defenders from the top of the key for an assist, plus her defense was solid</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Young came out with a vengeance off the top and that intensity stayed strong throughout the game. She's "long and athletic" which is the base and her coming from out of nowhere to block shots had me smiling, and so did her playing the passing lane. She scored the basket but her defense, both in and outside the paint looked good</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Smith is also "long and athletic" and her timing to block, alter, and (or) deflect shots is what sold me a couple of years ago. She too does a good job playing the passing lane as well as applying "on the ball" pressure baseline to baseline yet she hit the boards hard, on both ends, scored off the dribble and around the basket, putbacks included, and did a good job defending inside the paint</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">McCluarin was one of the top players at the event and her first-quarter performance alone was the absolute best to get the game going. Guess what, she's another "long and athletic" player who scored, however, she wanted, mid to long-range, off the dribble and inside the paint. She blocked shots, applied pressure defensively, and saw the floor</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">McDaniel is coming back from nagging injuries yet her mere presence on the court gives her squad an advantage as she can score off the dribble, as well as around the basket using solid hands and footwork. She understands positioning, rebounds on both ends, and does a good job defensively in the interior</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Timmons is also battling back from nagging injuries yet her college-ready frame coupled with her size and skillset has placed her in a nice position to be noticed by next-level coaches. She rebounds and gets the outlet, she understands how to set screens, and also "pick and roll" Her hands are good and she uses some tough moves to score inside the paint</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Kikunga has made leaps and bounds since since I caught her a few years ago but I saw it coming because she had something you can't teach and that is DESIRE. She falls into that "you won't outwork me" group yet she scored both inside the paint as well as off the dribble from outside. She rebounded on both ends and played solid interior defense </p>
