Class of 2022 – Unbeatable Starting Lineup
Class of 2023 – Unbeatable Starting Lineup
Now we will do the same thing for a talented class of 2021 in Michigan. These 5 “starters” could, at the very least, hold there own against any similar 5 across the country.
PG – Damayia Hagemann (PG, Detroit Edison)
Hagemann is a floor general with flare. She fits the ball through tight spaces and passes her teammates open.
SG – Jillian Brown Jillian Brown 5'10" | CG East Grand Rapids | 2021 State #55 Nation MI (CG, East Grand Rapids)
Brown can play on or off the ball, providing a very nice secondary ball handler. She’s one of the top pure shooters in the state.
SF – Morasha Wiggins Morasha Wiggins 6'0" | SF Kalamazoo Central | 2021 State #42 Nation MI (SF, Kalamazoo Central)
Wiggins is an elite wing, and in my opinion, one of the best in the country. She brings a nastiness and an intensity to the defensive end.
SF – Bree Salenbien Bree Salenbien 6'2" | SF Lenawee Chrisrian | 2021 State #47 Nation MI (SF, Lenawee Christian)
Salenbien is an incredibly tough matchup. Her versatile scoring, ball skills, and ability to play at any pace are magical to watch.
PF – Ally VanTimmeren Ally VanTimmeren 6'2" | PF Jenison | 2021 State #87 Nation MI (PF, Jenison)
VanTimmeren would add a big time factor in the paint. She’s tough on the glass, uses her feet to battle for position, and is a typical double-double type performer.
Now I’ll give you a second team based on the same criteria. This lineup, much like the first, would be competitive against any similarly based lineup nationwide.
PG – Kailee Davis Kailee Davis 5'4" | PG Detroit Renaissance | 2021 State MI (PG, Detroit Renaissance)
This lineup could flat out shut other teams down, and Davis would be the leader of that. She can defend the entire length of the floor.
PG – Kenzie Bowers Kenzie Bowers 5'10" | PG Kent City | 2021 State MI (PG, Kent City)
Bowers is a record setting shooter and would fill that role for this squad nicely. She stretches defense with her in the gym like range.
SF – Arieonna Ware Arieonna Ware 6'0" | SF Battle Creek Central | 2021 State MI (SF, Battle Creek Central)
Ware is an athletic defender that looks to push off of a turnover. She is a fantastic finisher on the other end.
PF – AJ Ediger AJ Ediger 6'3" | PF Hamilton | 2021 State #54 Nation MI (PF, Hamilton)
Ediger is versatile enough to match up with any 4 in the country. She can score in the paint off put backs as well as draw a defender out and take them to the rim.
PF – Alanna Micheaux Alanna Micheaux 6'2" | PF Wayne Memorial | 2021 State MI (PF, Wayne Memorial)
Micheaux is personified by her strength and toughness. She plays the game with grit that teammates like to follow.
