Brealynn Barnett is a force to be reckoned with in the paint on either side of the ball. Body size, athleticism, and speed are all things she uses to her advantage. I have has yet to come across a player that has all 3. Brealynn has been able to become a difference-maker over the past couple of years without having very many plays called for her. Her willingness to crash the offensive glass gives her a lot of easy 2nd chance points.
