A bit of time on the AAU circuit certainly was a help to this name from 5A Division I Byrnes and she is sure continue to build a profile for herself given she plays for one of the premier 5A teams in the state. Dukes typically operates in the backcourt as a two guard and especially excels on defense. She plays with a heads-up mentality which will enable her to take advantage of an opposing team’s miscues. Dukes also has superb ball handling skills and the speed she has when possessing the rock can be massively useful when making plays in the transition game.

Byrnes has established itself as one of the teams to beat in the 5A ranks across South Carolina. As long as Dukes continues to sport the Rebels colors, that should continue. Dukes tallied seven points to give her team a lift as SC Eagles UA Rise 16U took on Net Rippers 16U. Included in her skillset is an ability to connect on floaters and the ability to collect steals to give her team additional offensive possessions. A 3-point shot is also part of her overall offensive arsenal. One can see why Dukes went from seeing playing time in 15 games as a freshman to 20 contests as a sophomore.

An versatile inside out player. Can score from multiple areas. Looked great when she caught in the mid-post, turned to face up, and and was a able to read the defense and attack with either hand.
