The first part of Young’s game that I should mention is her scoring ability. She has one of the best scoring averages in the state, putting up 20.5 points a night. I have talked about Young in the past, and she has an old-school type of game. Her go-to move is the turn-around mid-range jumper. She uses great elevation to propel herself over the defense, then splashes the jumper with a pure form. Young has been a double-digit scorer in all four years on varsity, and she has made some strides in her game during the 2024/25 season.

Young was a 32% 3-point shooter as a junior. This year, she knocks down threes at a 46% rate. Her free throw percentage has also improved, increasing from 73% in her sophomore season to 91% as a senior.

On the other side of the ball, she is extremely active. Young averages 2.6 steals and 0.8 blocks per game. She also asserts her will on the boards, averaging 5.3 total and 2.7 offensive rebounds a night.

Logan Young Logan Young 5'9" | SF Dover | 2025 State AR is one of the most versatile and skilled forwards in the 3A classification. She can play either the small or power forward positions and she is hard to stop in the high/mid post and in the paint. Young is already off the board, as she committed to Arkansas Tech in June, but she is still expected to have a great senior season.

Young is at her best when she is playing around the free throw line or on the blocks. She takes and makes short jumpers from those spots. She can hit catch-and-shoot and turn-around jumpers in the mid-range, and those shots are so hard to block. For NBA fans, think of Shaun Livingston, who was unstoppable from the mid-range and high post areas in his time with the Golden State Warriors. That is who Young’s game takes after. It may be unusual for today’s game, but it is an automatic two points when she takes those shots. Not only is Young a threat to hit those short jumpers, but she gets to her spots and if the defense is too tight, she is a huge threat to drive.

Young’s slashing ability is dangerous. She can slice past defenders whether she is posting up or on a dribble-drive. Her finishing ability is great, and she uses pump fakes and the backboard to her advantage each time down the court. She can do these things in the half-court, but she also does them well on the fastbreak. Her paint scoring and short jumpers all translate to every kind of basketball scenario.

Defensively, Young makes her presence felt by causing turnovers. She has very active hands and will strip the ball away in a split second. She can play the passing lanes too, but Young is also a stellar shot blocker. She has great timing on those blocks and she does not mind sending the ball towards the stands.

Logan Young Logan Young 5'9" | SF Dover | 2025 State AR is a fantastic basketball player with tremendous two-way ability. Though she is no longer uncommitted, she has potential to be the best forward in all of 3A, and it will be worth watching.
