Berte was one of the most intriguing players we watched all weekend. The 6-foot forward from Sioux Falls Washington is long, athletic, incredibly bouncy, and moves with the kind of ease that immediately grabs your attention. She elevates up and over defenders in a way only true scholarship-level athletes tend to do. What I really liked, though, was the motor. Berte fought hard for rebounds, communicated constantly, and competed at both ends on every possession. Her jumper is smooth and natural with legitimate range, and there’s still so much room for growth, both in physical development and skill-wise. Watching her this weekend we couldn’t help but be excited for what lies ahead because Berte is just scratching the surface of what’s possible.

Layla is a pure athlete who contributes on both ends with her length, quickness, and high motor. She stood out at the latest Top Prospect Expo as an excellent communicator with energy that betters everyone around her. She is a talented rebounder on both ends with a great desire to go and get the basketball to help her team win. On offense she uses her length and athleticism to take advantage of matchups either off the dribble or catching near the paint. As her role increases at Sioux Falls Washington, Layla is a player to keep your eye on as a stock-riser in this talented class of prospects.
