In the first game I got to watch of Poleski, what kept me watching was her ability to handle the ball, along with active hands and strong defense. She plays longer than her listed height suggests and consistently makes an impact on both ends. Offensively, she can score off the dribble or off the catch, and she showed the ability to do it while being guarded tight and through tough contact. From the outside, her jumper is smooth, textbook, and confident whenever she lets it go. The instincts and awareness stand out as a playmaker as well. She doesn’t second guess her decisions, and more often than not, she’s making the right read. A major stock riser in her class.

Poleski is another interesting player that we saw over the weekend and it looks like she could be something special if she sticks with it. Poleski is a 5’10 CG, that can move between the 1, 2, or 3 spot. She seems to be more of a natural at the 1 spot facilitating or at the 2 as her team’s main scoring threat at the Guard position. A lot of her team’s action came off of what Poleski did on the outside. Sometimes she started things off while dishing it to someone else and sometimes she went for it and attacking the defense but the point is, she stayed right in the action, whatever that action was. The Chicago Hoops Express program is one of my favorite. They are coaches hard and play the game the right way. They have talent at every level and that goes for players just like Poleski.
