Expert Analysis
Gabrielle Bean | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Bella reached a major milestone on Monday evening, scoring her 2,000th career point in a win over crosstown rival Maine West. Already a junior, she still has a full year to chase the conference’s all-time record of 3,077 points set by Jewell Loyd from 2009–2012. This season, she has been the team’s go-to player in every facet, leading in scoring, rebounding, ballhandling, and defense, with averages of 28.4 points, 8.6 rebounds, and 3 steals per game.

Silva has been a consistent and key piece for Maine East, and as the competition gets better and her opponents get stronger, Silva should be able to keep her standard of play up. She has a smooth game and can go off from a scoring standpoint at any moment. Strong on the drive and not afraid to let it go from the outside.

Silva is a hooper. She is crafty, strong and aggressive. The confidence is off the roof and you love to see it. She is no where near her potential, and as her competition gets better, she will as well. Especially with her club team being one of the premiere clubs in the state, Arabella has a shot to make some noise this AAU season.

Silva has a solid baseline of skills and a sharp fundamental set. From all angles on the court, she’s a threat, and she has the confidence to take and make big shots. Silva’s key will be showing that same effectiveness when the competition against her increases. The potential is there.

Silva is another one of those crafty and strong ball handling type of players. She can score from the outside, just as well as she can in the inside. Looking forward to seeing how she adjusts as the competition gets stiffer.
