Brandon Bradley | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
This was a tough choice, but I picked Libby’s skill and versatility over size in Kaelyse Mitchell Kaelyse Mitchell 6'5" | C Evansville Reitz | 2025 State IN (below). Either way, if this group were to play together, you would see seven or eight kids capable of starting play big minutes. Libby is a strong, fairly physical, hard-working forward. She has a beautiful stroke and can bury shot after shot from the perimeter if she has any space. She is improving her ball-handling and passing as well. Defensively, she is best battling in the mid-post and defending ball screens.

Libby looked locked in yesterday, and she is a nice, versatile forward who many of the Midwest’s top small college programs would like. She has a strong frame, she can be physical, and she will play hard. At the same time, she has a little ball skill, she is an outstanding perimeter shooter when she has time and finds rhythm, and she can attack the basket North/South with some physicality. Defensively, she’s better taking on forwards than wings/guards right now.

I am still not sure where I would pencil Libby in position-wise at the next level, but I do know that she can really shoot the basketball. She has very good balance and control between the catch and her release, and she has some range as well. She has a broad frame, some strength, and she can defend with physicality. I think she’s probably more of a ‘4’ defensively but a ‘3’ offensively. If she can improve her lateral quickness and her ability to defend the ball, as well as her blow-by ability offensively, I think she can become a wing. For now, I think she’s a matchup problem as a pick-and-pop ‘4’.
