Kiri gave consistent effort every game with a balance in points and boards. More importantly she played solid interior defense and controlled her fouls even against taller players. No one regardless of level was able to impose their will on her.

Kiri finishes strong inside after contact. She posts up well and has a good drop step move at the basket. She has nice hands and a good body, she has mismatches against smaller defenders at times and passes back out of the post, she should recognize when that occurs and take advantage as she has the ability.
