Expert Analysis
Akiem Bailum | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
McDuffie flourishes as a two-sport athlete with her second sport of choice being soccer alongside hoops. She adds a 3-point shooting element to a team’s offense and can throw defenses for a loop as they are unsure as to if she will shoot from long range or attack from the open floor. Ball distribution is another portion of her game that she thrives in and she keeps her hands active on the defensive end of the floor. That defense also enables her to clog an opposing team’s passing lanes. McDuffie hopes to lead the T-breds back to a tournament bid this upcoming season.

When one does not see McDuffie on the basketball court, it is likely she is sharpening her soccer game given it is the other sport she has competed in during her time with the 4A Thoroughbreds. McDuffie is an efficient mover and distributor of the ball and stays with active hands as a defender. Her defense enables her to affect an opposing team’s passing lanes. She adds a 3-point shooting dimension to a team’s offensive attack and also attacks the rim with a fearless mentality. One can certainly expect another strong season from McDuffie for the T-breds in 2022-23.
