Estes was one of the most impressive Bigs at last year’s 250 with her strength and versatility and brought it again this year. She was also effective this summer when I saw her out at the fairgrounds, but I have never had the chance to see her play in high school. If you Coach for a smaller College and need a skilled, developed post player that can do just about everything well this is a player you should be looking at. She is just a bit too short for the D1 level but she would be a great addition as a 5 for a D3 or NAIA team and maybe at the 4 for a D2 team. Every player has to be the right fit for your system and I think Estes would be a fit in most systems.

Estes tends to play in the high post and free throw line extended but has the body to be an enforcer under the hoop also. Her footwork is excellent and she appears to be well-versed in how to play the game with your back to the basket. She doesn’t shy away from contact and moves with purpose or holds her position using her excellent balance. She would be an excellent screener in any sort of offensive, with the ability to knock down an open short jumper or make the layup on the roll to the hoop. If you run the Mover-Blocker Offense seeing her play should be a top priority.

Estes is a really strong player, physically and mentally. She showed a variety of good post moves and she was finishing through contact at the rim. I was really impressed by Estes on the defensive end as well. She was always in the right help defense positions and she altered a lot of shots around the rim.
