Lola Richardson
About Lola
Expert Analysis
Brandon Fisher | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Lola is a really talented/skilled hooper with a lot of length and size. The lefty has great hands and a soft touch that allow her to score with either hand around the bucket. She hit a really nice hook shot with her right hand from about 10 feet out on Sunday. Her release is high and smooth which makes it so hard to defend. Lola plays smart and passes it well for her position too.

Lola leveled up every game at Peach Games. Her calm, versatile play stood out especially after showing a smooth jump hook in the paint. Don’t underestimate her lateral speed–she timed up a couple of clutch blocks and dropped 4 assists, including a backdoor dime from the pinch post. On the next level she’s more of a system player who thrives in high-set, 4 out 1 in spread(with creators), or 5 out offenses. Only going to get better with more reps. Coaches, keep your eyes on her.

Research Triangle-based NC GBB has one of the premier basketball programs in the entire Hoop State. Prep Girls Hoops got a glimpse of the young up-and-comer at a camp at Queens University. Defensively, she is difficult to score on as she is a threat to reject shots. Rebounding is another strong element to her game. Richardson plays with plenty of confidence and has no problems calling for the ball when she believes she can make a play – those of which she makes plenty of. She had a stellar season on the travel scene with Carolina All-Stars 2026 and is hoping to translate that into more good fortunes this season with NC GBB.

was scoring early for her team making her moves without the ball to get the entry pass and score. She took advantage of some space from her defender hitting the jumper from the free throw line, too. Her up and under move has proven to be difficult for anyone to defend as she is sure to score off of it with her nice footwork.

Lola Richardson is a nice post handling herself in the paint being ready to catch the pass, turn, and shoot. She executed plays well finding the open areas in the moment to catch and shoot. Her height was definitely an asset going after rebounds in the paint on both ends of the court.
