Emory is a really good basketball player and has a very high ceiling as a prospect. She is a great sized forward at 6′ and is super athletic. She uses her long strides and speed to get downhill to the basket. Her length also allows her to finish easily against smaller defenders. She moves her feet well defensively and has all of the tools to be a menace on the defensive end.

Emory jumped into the Top 10 in the Class of 2027 and for good reason after competing on a state-tournament Sioux Falls Christian team. She has excellent length and speed and looks like a perfect fit for the modern game of basketball. She runs the floor well, has great body control in transition, finishes well around the rim, and plays with a lot of intensity as well as aggressiveness. Big time player to watch as we head into summer basketball!
