I came out to watch her play after I heard about her amazing performance in the area when she scored 39 points. I had to see what this girl's game is all about. In the first quarter, Maddie started off a little slow on the scoring side, with the score being 12-2, but she did what big-time players do: she affected the game in multiple ways. Immediately, Maddie was grabbing offensive rebounds and running the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Her passing abilities and the way she lifts her teammates up are things that don't show up in the stat sheet. Maddie was vocal, motivating her teammates and giving them hope to win the game. She's an absolute beast in transition! Maddie grabbed a rebound over three Huffman players and took the ball coast to coast for a contested layup.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Maddie's a slithery finisher with her ability to avoid contact and leave her defenders looking silly, which is super entertaining. Her footwork is her greatest strength; when she posts up on defenders, her ability to execute effective moves with the agility, power, and confidence she plays with is amazing.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Maddie is the most complete player I've seen in 6A so far, and one of the most skilled players in her class of 2027. She's also a class act; with her talent, she doesn't showboat. Despite the crowd reacting to her moves, she doesn't try to play for flash or make highlights. She goes into games just trying to win. I didn't even see Maddie celebrate the whole game; she's a true class act that any basketball fan would love to watch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='858157' first='Maddie' last='Walter'] finished the game with 20 points, 17 rebounds, 3 blocks, and 1 assist. She's a player that everyone in Alabama and 6A should have on their watch list!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
