Anna made a quantum-sized leap in the rankings because she has the prototypical athleticism, length, quickness, and versatility that project to a high level of college basketball. She’s an explosive downhill driver who can bury three-pointers. Anna can play inside or outside and is aggressive on both ends of the court. She wins rebounding battles and has the potential to keep moving up the charts.

Anna has the speed, length, athleticism, motor, and skill to be a highly recruited college prospect. She left no doubt about that at the Airport Showcase. Anna was in the zone right from the opening tip, scoring 10 of 12 for Belding in the first quarter. She drilled a smooth wing three, aggressively ripped the ball away, scored a strong offensive rebound put back, and used her quick hands to produce a steal. Anna gets downhill in a hurry and explodes through the lane. She used a sweet high pick-up move to convert a left-handed layup on a straight line drive and took a DHO straight to the rim for a tough and-one: completed the three-point play at the line. Anna drilled a corner three off the catch, scored another high pick-up layup on a drive, dished out a great dump-off assist, and outworked three defenders to secure an offensive rebound. Anna led the Kicking Mules with 17 points, 12 rebounds, and three steals.

Another Gray in a Bedford basketball jersey is a scary thought for a lot of future opponents. She really came into her own as a freshman when her sister was sidelined with an injury. Gray showed the ability to score with physicality and as a cutter through the lane. Gray has truly elite potential and upside in her game.
