Ella is an extremely quick and shifty lead guard who has done a nice job of changing positions throughout her high school career. When I first saw her, between her 8th Grade and Freshman years, she was roughly the same size and was used as more of a wing shooter because she had great touch and deep range. She showed toughness as a youngster and continues that today. She has added a much more dynamic game off the bounce, and she can create for herself or others, plus she’s a scrappy defender.

In a talented but deep backcourt, Ella has carved out a nice role for the Lady Trojans. She is quick, fast, and very active at both ends of the floor, and she can best be described as just a playmaker. She has the ability to make shots with deep range, but she also gets by defenders and collapses defenses, either creating for teammates or finishing herself in the paint. I also really like her feistiness defensively, on the ball especially, but she has a noticeable toughness in general to her game. Look for her to help lead Center Grove this season.

I wrote about Ella just the other day, so I’ll somewhat reiterate those thoughts. Ella was really good throughout July. She is a tough-nosed, feisty kid, she can knock down shots with range, plus she is doing a nice job of taking care of the basketball and creating opportunities for her teammates. She is quick/fast and shifty, and while she’s been primarily known as a shooter in the past, her playmaking ability is starting to show through as well. If I’m a small college looking for an offensive-minded playmaker, look no further.

When I was able to see Ella throughout July, she looked like she always has…tough-nosed and feisty, knocking down shots with range, plus she was handling the ball as much as ever and creating opportunities for herself or teammates. She is a quick/fast and shifty point guard who has long been known for her ability to make shots outside. The fact that she’s also a playmaker makes her doubly difficult to defend. Small colleges looking for an offensive-minded playmaker will love her game, but she can also get after it defensively.
