About Kelsey
Expert Analysis
Connor Dodd | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Kelsey is a high level lead guard that has had a phenomenal junior season as the lead guard for an undefeated league champ Brentwood team. Takes care of the ball, handles pressure and attacks with vision and composure in chaos. Comfortable shooter with a quick release that can knock down from behind the arc (30% + on 100+ shot volume) + off the bounce. High motor athlete constantly moving and cutting to create space and opportunity. Guards the ball well, gets out in transition. Her ability to control pace/flow of the game could be a game-changer late in these playoffs!

Kelsey is the lead guard for a deep Brentwood squad and impacts the game in multiple ways. A crafty ball handler, she thrives against pressure in the open floor, often using it to her advantage to turn defensive coverage into numbers advantages that ignite Brentwood’s offense. She is also unusually effective playing with her back to the basket for a guard, able to back down defenders, score with soft touch on baby hooks over either shoulder, and draw help before finding cutters and shooters for high-percentage looks. Add in her confidence and range from beyond the arc, and Kelsey becomes a constant offensive threat. Brentwood is never an easy out, and she is a major reason why.
