turned heads with her performance at the Flagler Fall Camp. She handled the ball well, consistently got into the paint, and finished at the rim while also showing the ability to score from the perimeter. Telke won the camp’s one-on-one competition, using a quick first step to beat defenders and create favorable scoring angles. With her length, skill set, and versatility, she looks capable of playing multiple positions from the one through the four. The scary part is that Telke still has a lot of upside and room to grow s a player.

Laura enters the Florida 2027 rankings after bringing valuable international experience from Germany and quickly showing she can compete at a high level in the US. She has a good frame and a fundamentally sound all-around game that translates well on both ends of the floor. Offensively, Telke is an efficient three-point shooter with a smooth stroke who sees the floor well and does a good job penetrating to create opportunities. Defensively, she anticipates plays at a high level and blocks shots well for her position by using her instincts and timing to impact the game on that end of the floor. Her combination of skill, versatility, and strong fundamentals makes her an intriguing addition to the 2027 class.

showcased a polished offensive game and a high basketball IQ throughout the camp. Telke shot the ball well from beyond the arc, showing comfort, consistency, and courage. What makes her especially effective is her ability to keep defenders guessing. She can knock down the three-pointer when given space, but she is equally capable of putting the ball on the floor and attacking the basket. Telke reads the game well, makes smart decisions with the basketball, and possesses a natural feel for scoring. Her combination of shooting ability and basketball IQ makes her a difficult matchup for opposing defenses.

Telke gives a long-range shooting dimension to what WT Elite 17U – and her Balboa School team – gets accomplished. If she has the ball behind the 3-point line, Telke is very likely to take – and make – said attempt from distance. Defensively, Telke can maintain outstretched arms and that can clog up an opposing team’s passing lanes given her length compliments her height. She has no issues changing her defensive assignments on the fly and delivers strong finishes at the rim. The fearless attitude she consistently brings is another attribute that makes her a top-tier prospect. Telke is another prospect with international experience as she brought her talents stateside from Germany.

Telke is an international prospect from Germany who has brought her many talents stateside. White Tigers Elite 17U played the first of three Saturday contests that afternoon and earned a 66-35 victory over Alabama Elite 17U. Telke is highly effective from long range and can also make things happen with her transition plays. Defensively, one can notice Telke consistently keeping her hands outstretched and she is more than willing to change her defensive assignments on the fly. The talented junior brings a fearless attitude to every game she plays – which includes her ability to deliver strong finishes at the cup.
