down low handling the ball, finding the open lane, and getting to the rim.  Her cuts are effective in the paint getting lost by her defenders, grabbing the pass, and making the bucket.  She follows shots grabbing rebounds on both ends of the court.  She makes nice adjustments getting her shot up even with defenders in her face.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!--

on defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

the ball effectively getting her hands in the way on defense coming away with steals.  Her ability to find open lanes on fast breaks is fun to watch, and she knows how to draw defenders towards her to make the dish to her teammates.  She knows when to push the tempo or slow things down to set up an offensive play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
