Lanaia’s mid range game is similar to A’ja. She is best receiving the ball on the left elbow where she can quickly swipe through, take on large step and dribble to finish at the rim.

Six points, came off her back to the basket where she can pivot to face the basket, use a strong jab step, or spin after securing entry pass, getting to the rim in one dribble. Q4, Martin finished with seven points.

Lanaia is player who leads by example never taking plays off nor did she come out the game until the last 1:45.

Lanaia had a series of incredible play that went through Takeover Cinco De Mayo to the “scrimmage” to Prime Event East. Her performances ranged from really good to borderline unstoppable. She plays with a high motor and uses her athleticism well when attacking. She rose almost 10 spots in the rankings to#5.

Lanaia had a series of games where she just could not be stopped. She attacked the basket hard, quick and physical, using her size to out muscle smaller players and her speed to get by the bigger slower players. No matter who stepped up to guard her she could not be stopped from getting to the basket play after play. She established herself as one of the absolute best players in the building.

Lanaia had one of the best performances that I have ever seen from her, she did it by sharing the ball and not forcing things. Her passes opened up so many opportunities for her on the return pass and her ability to create became more amplified as defenses could not lock in on her

Lanaia is one of the youngest players on her high school and club team and also one of the best players on both. She uses her athleticism well to elevate for rebounds and to finish. As she expands her range she will be more versatile in the perimeter and close to unstoppable.
