Last season, Lucy Beckham made the transition from 4A to 5A Division 2. Plenty of wattage helped make said move much easier. A product of FBC Reign 2027 on the Under Armour circuit, Watts approaches the game with a heads-up attitude that enables her to take advantage of an opposing team’s miscues. She is an efficient floor runner – an attribute that comes in very useful when making plays in transition or when slicing and dicing her way to the basket through a sea of defenders. If she sees a shot she likes from behind the arc, Watts is likely to take and make it. Watts averaged 8.4 points and 1.3 steals last season for the Bengals.

Watts was also present at the Under Armour Rise finals in Pennsylvania competing with FBC Reign UA Rise 2027. She averaged 10.3 points per game in the Keystone State. In one of the games, she was hard to contain from behind the arc as she drained four 3-pointers. Watts also averaged 4.7 rebounds and 2.1 steals during the final live period event. She especially made an impact on the defensive end of the floor as she caused plenty of deflections with how she clogged up the passing lanes for opposing lanes. Watts also plays volleyball alongside basketball. She has played at the varsity level since the eighth grade and averaged 8.4 points and 1.3 steals last season at 5A Division 2 Lucy Beckham.
