The growth spurt is a major key in Nowacki’s recruitment, because the skill was always there. She has had her name mentioned by some credible coaches over the past year, especially with her playing for the Polish National Team and Kentucky Premier, but the added length gives her even more to work with. Defensively, that’s where you see it right away. She isn’t afraid to switch onto bigs and make things difficult, while against guards she can cover a lot of ground with her wingspan. On the offensive end, the skill set is wide. The ball handling, IQ, and patience make her a strong playmaker, but if scoring is what her program needs, she can create her own off the dribble, play off the ball as a slasher, or be a catch & shoot option. With the physical growth now matching more of the skill that was already there, Nowacki has high upside and is a major stock riser in this class.

One of the top players in this class, and today was another piece of proof of that. From a stature standpoint, she has definitely grown a couple of inches and uses it to her advantage now when she’s attacking the rim. The playmaking ability is there as well, and so is the scoring from the outside. A ton of potential, and she can very well find herself in the top 15 as time goes on.

From afar, it appears Nowacki has added a few inches to her frame, and the length she already had from a wingspan standpoint is noticeable. She brings a strong balance between scoring at all three levels and facilitating for others. The handle is solid, and she does a good job of not overdribbling within possessions. As the level of competition gets stronger this spring and summer, it will give a clearer picture of how her game continues to translate.

Nowacki has all the tools necessary to be one of the best point guards in the class. She can handle the ball even if there’s pressure, her head is up on a majority of the possessions, and her patience to let a play develop before she attacks is something to notice as well. The upside is there, and it’s strong.

Nowacki has a strong amount of talent stored in her skillset and could put on a show for her high school team this season, when they get started. She’s a point guard with strong handles and solid vision, but she also shows the ability to get it going from all spots and angles from a scoring standpoint. A for sure player to stay updated on.

One of the most electrifying guards in this state. Regardless of the size, this kid has talent and a feel for the game that not a lot of high school players have. Once the muscle builds, I don’t see many D1 programs not extending an offer within the next year or two. Remember the name.
