About Grace
Expert Analysis
EJ Arocho | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
A versatile scoring forward who consistently created offensive opportunities within the flow of the game. She proved to be a very reliable 3-point threat, spacing the floor well and knocking down perimeter shots with confidence. Her off-ball movement stood out, curling and cutting to get open and put pressure on the defense. She made a strong effort to pursue rebounds on both ends of the floor; played bigger than her 5’9″ size.

Grace opened her AAU season with NJ Shoreshots U17 by helping her team get off to a 3-0 start. She has a smooth, consistent three-point shot and excels in transition, running the floor hard to generate easy scoring opportunities. Defensively, Grace contests drives effectively without fouling, and offensively she shows good awareness by attacking the paint and kicking out to open teammates when help defense collapses.

I have Grace down as a Forward officially but she showed heavy Guard-like tendencies in AC this past weekend. Confident 3-point shooting saw her swish deep buckets from the wings and corners off the catch. In transition, she got downhill in quick fashion and was the beneficiary of outlet passes which she converted for points. She also put in work on the cut, setting picks in the high post then slicing backdoor. Her frame at 5’9″ was a factor on the glass, able to hold her own and fight for rebounds.
