Expert Analysis
Brandon Fisher | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Emma was truly a floor general and an extension of the coach on the court. She controlled the offensive pace for her team and had smooth handles with an excellent behind the back dribble to change direction. The lefty hustled on every possession and had a couple nice chase down blocks from behind. Her court vision was elite in finding her teammates, and the way she sold any ball fakes created easy separation and gaps to blow by her defender.

Emma is one of the best true PG’s in her class. She’s a confident, high IQ player that facilitates and makes her teammates look better. Last season, she averaged 14 points, 7 boards, 5 assists, and 4 steals per game. Her ability to knock down the open three and slash or attack the rim just adds another layer to her already unselfish game as a pure point guard. She plays with high competitive energy and is a charismatic leader that can rally and motivate a team.
