Alexis had a phenomenal weekend for KBA 15U at the PGH Michigan State Tournament, and her efforts helped her team finish as runner-ups in the Silver bracket. Alexis is a three-level scorer who competes with an endless supply of energy and hustle. She doesn’t stop defending, rebounding, or making plays on either end. Alexis sprinted in to secure offensive rebounds and score full-speed layups comfortably with either hand at the rim. She picked off passes and stripped the ball away on defense to score breakaway layups. One of my favorite plays was when she jumped up to deflect a pass, chased down the loose ball, quickly accelerated towards the basket, switched to her left, then scored the and-one layup through contact. Alexis has another gear off the dribble, drained catch-and-shoot threes off the hop, and got to the rim whenever she needed to. She averaged 19 points throughout the tournament and made a huge statement over the weekend.

Alexis, a guard for Kalamazoo Basketball Academy, made a strong impact at the Battle in the Mitten with her quickness and defensive instincts. She was disruptive on the perimeter, consistently coming away with steals and turning them into offense, including a coast-to-coast finish that resulted in an and-one. Alexis also showed her ability to navigate traffic, finishing effectively around the basket even with defenders closing in. Her speed, toughness, and ability to create plays on both ends made her a standout throughout the weekend.

Alexis went off for a career-high 31 points and nine steals during a 71-9 win against Coloma. She drained three triples and scored 17 points in a 45-21 win vs. Constantine.
