Celia showed a nice combination of composure, defensive effort and court awareness while competing with Team Fever during the middle school session at the Headliners Invitational. One of the things I liked most about her performance was how she handled defensive pressure. Rather than picking up her dribble when defenders closed in, Celia kept it alive, worked her way through traffic and delivered a good pass to a teammate. She also showed the ability to help push the pace, securing a defensive rebound and immediately advancing the basketball in transition. On the defensive end, Celia made her presence felt with a block and showed excellent hustle on another possession when she raced back to disrupt an opponent’s scoring opportunity. Her willingness to put in the effort defensively, along with her ability to remain under control with the basketball, were encouraging parts of her performance for Team Fever.
