Jimada watched the first run from the sidelines, but as per usual when she hit the floor, she made a pretty immediate impact. She was very poised on the ball and made good decisions against the group of older players. One of her first contributions on the offensive end was a three-point shot she knocked down trailing in transition with a hand in her face. Another came quickly thereafter as Aniela ripped down a rebound and took two dribbles before firing a pass 3/4 court to an open Blaklee Ledford Blaklee Ledford 5'5" | PG Murray County | 2028 State GA for an uncontested layup. I think she has a chance to be a big-time contributor for this team coming off the bench throughout the course of a long season. Jimada could be the addition her team needs to advance further in the state tournament come February as well.

Jimada is a player who I have seen play a good bit of in passing at AAU tournaments, showcases, and other basketball-related functions. For a player going into the ninth grade (South Forsyth), she does a lot of things on the basketball court and well. Aniela is all business, all the time and I think in 2-3 years time she will be one of the better players in her class in Georgia. She is a tireless worker who I have also seen in training sessions at Redline a lot on Sundays. Aniela was very good getting to the basket and finishing, whether that was in transition or the half court and when defenders backed off to prevent the drive, Jimada made them pay shooting the ball from the perimeter. She is a well rounded kid who competes hard every possession and one of the more fundamental and well-rounded freshmen in Georgia.
