Expert Analysis
Chris Gay | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Livi McClain is an offensive juggernaut for the Charleston Lady Tigers. She can just about do it all: shoot from outside, score inside, and play solid defense. McClain has been offered by almost every NAIA, JUCO, and Division 3 school in the state, but with a strong senior season, expect even more offers to come flooding in.
McClain is at her best on offense, especially when she is shooting from beyond the arch. Her 3-point and mid-range shooting are nearly impossible to stop. She comes off of screens for catch-and-shoot looks almost every possession for Charleston, and she is usually cashing in. Her release is very quick and she does not mind shooting a few steps beyond the line. When defenses close out too hard against her, McClain does not hesitate to drive the lane and find ways to score inside. McClain can finish over taller defenders, but she is better shooting floaters and runners in the lane–it is just about as good as her outside shooting. She also takes on contact well, and she must have Lady Luck on her side because of the way she is able to make impossible shots.
McClain has also shown that she defends well. She is not a major threat to steal the ball multiple times a game, but she does not need to. McClain plays tight on-ball defense and forces the opposition to have to pass away from her or take bad shots.
Livi McClain has been offered by South Arkansas College, Lyon College, Crowley’s Ridge College, North Arkansas College, and from McPherson College in Kansas. All of those offers came in this past summer, but look out for McClain to receive more in 2024/25.
