is a fearless player with great confidence in her game. Her ball handling is one of her standout skills, and combined with her quickness, agility, and decisive decision-making, she embodies the type of point guard every coach wants. Her ability to split double teams while staying in control is impressive, and one of the most exciting aspects of her game is how she uses her off-hand to shield defenders during crossovers, along with hip swivels to protect the ball while scanning the floor. Dawkins’ next level ball handling skills make her a truly impressive player to watch.
Laylah is a confident scorer who can flat out shoot the basketball. She plays with poise and a fearless mindset, never shying away from big moments. Her quick release and smooth handle allow her to create space and get her shot off with ease. Laylah’s ability to stretch the floor and score off the bounce makes her a constant threat to opposing defenses. As she continues to sharpen her game, expect her offensive impact to keep rising.
Laylah has the ball on a string and uses elite quickness to get by defenders. In Gainesville, she was exciting and impressive once again. She can hit a tough euro-step in traffic or use her ability to penetrate to collapse the defense and find the open girl. Her shiftiness, court vision, and overall willingness to get a bucket will always make her a serious offensive threat from anywhere.
Laylah is one of the most exciting players in the state to watch. Her quickness and overall skill make her so difficult to defend. She can score it from anywhere, but she really excels by getting to the rim with her speed. Laylah sees the floor well, plays unselfish, and will give her team all of her effort on every possession.
Laylah was a walking BUCKET over the weekend. If her team needed points, she could take over and create her own by getting downhill with her handles and speed and either score it herself or dish it to her open teammate. She was knocking down the 3 ball and finishing over bigger defenders on Saturday. She’s quick, shifty, and plays with one of the best motors in the 2027 class.
