Ellie English Ellie English 5'10" | CG/SF BGM | 2028 State IA brings to the floor some height, a mixed skill set between a guard and a forward, and some basketball IQ to pair along with both of those things. Over her time the next few years, this is someone that might turn into more of a guard by the looks of it. She is always going to play near the basket at her smaller high school but when she gets on the travel floor and competes with a bigger pool of players, she will likely compete on both the inside of the paint and out on the perimeter. I’m expecting English to start off this AAU season hot with her AIA team and hopefully she can take the momentum from that into her sophomore season this upcoming Winter.

I was very impressed with Ellie English Ellie English 5'10" | CG/SF BGM | 2028 State IA of BGM High School and how she produced against some other noteworthy prospects. English has nice height at 5’10, she moves like a mix between a guard and a forward, all while being extremely coordinated with her balance. When you combined those three things, you get an individual who can do some damage on the high school floor, with a ton of promise looking toward the future. English is one of those that doesn’t do anything great but she does everything really well. She can use her height to rebound and score near the bucket, she can use her long first-step on the outside to bring out a post defender to the perimeter and than attack her for an easy finish, or she can screen away from the play to open up others within their offense. After what I saw this weekend, I expect English to put up some eye-catching numbers the next three years at BGM at the Varsity level as well as this Spring/Summer season with her All Iowa Attack team.
