Expert Analysis
Jim Dabbelt | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Cook is a player who made herself known quickly as a freshman, leading CJ to the state championship. Her D1 stock is extremely high, she’s long, can score inside or out with excellent body control and she is a solid leader. As she gets older, I look for her skillset to continue to improve, adding to what she already can do. Bigtime prospect.

Cook is such a handful to guard because she’s got the athleticism, size, and speed to play, defend, and score from any position. You’re always in for a treat when the ball is in her hands because she has so many options to choose from- anything from knocking down the three ball, to posting up on the block, or driving to the basket.

One of three sophomores on this team, and she provides quite the credentials. Not only is she a state champion as a freshman and the best player on her high school team, she brings so much to the table when she plays. Not only offensively is she able to create shots and make plays, on the defensive side she can also defend all five spots, has active hands and her ceiling is unlimited.

Cook, another freshman phenom, reminded me of one of the greatest rebounders ever- Dennis Rodman. She was in a whole other galaxy grabbing boards, which led to points on the other end! And offensively, she knows how to take it to the basket with a hand in her face!

Strong physical presence can do a lot with basketball. Not only can she score in the paint, but she can step outside and contribute. Excellent hands, her footwork is developed and she’s getting better and better all the time. Major division one recruit.

She has put up really good numbers in her first season at CJ, averaging over 10 per game with almost 8 rebounds. Strong physical presence around the boards, her best years are in front of her. Ceiling is unlimited and so is her growth potential. She should be on everybody’s radar immediately!

This young lady……wow!! What a talent and she reminds me of a young version of Samarie Walker, a former CJ standout. She is such a strong force, great frame to handle the physical play. Can knock down the shot from behind the arc. Already building up the D1 offers!

Talk about a force, when I first saw her a couple years ago as a middle schooler playing in a high school summer league she caught my attention very quickly. Now she’s part of an incredibly strong CJ team this year and she’s going to be tested in a very good conference. But she’s ready, she is strong and physical, able to deal with the inside game. Can step out and defend, and she moves well. She has a college frame right now. She debuts at number 3. (

One of the best incoming freshmen in the Dayton area, Cook like most freshman at the top end of the class have offers and a lot of interest. This girl is an athletic machine, great around the rim with excellent hands and a solid defender.

This young lady’s ceiling is off the charts! I saw her last summer and she was incredible at summer league and now she heads into high school as one of the top freshman ballers in Ohio. She is strong, physical, gets the job done around the rim and she’s gonna keep getting better! (Featured photo above)
