Lynelle is coming into her own, and the offers are following. Her skillset is more low post, and her size allows her to use more of a strength focused approach than finesse. As the skill set sharpens, there’s no doubt that more college programs will show interest.

Lynelle was an impressive powerful forward prospect at our Victory Region Finals. She used a crossover dribble to set up her defender, sealed her with a spin move, then finished the layup off two feet. She converted tough layups off two feet inside throughout the tournament and used another effective pivot to score a powerful and-one through contact. Lynelle caught an entry pass in the high post, used a forward pivot, ripped the ball across her face, drove downhill with her left hand into a jump stop, then pivoted to drop in a soft floater over the defender. Lynelle had a great weekend with Example Sports Select 2026.

UAA 2026 Select is one of the tallest and most coordinated prospects that we will have a chance to see this weekend in Chicago. Awou is a future collegiate prospect that stands right around 6’3. She is a producer next to the basket as a forward with her ability to control traffic in the lane, her ability to convert on most of her offensive attempts up near the bucket, and her ability to impact a contest in a major way on the defensive side of the ball. We should hear this name for years to come at the next level. Her mixture of balance, touch, and size is noteworthy and impactful to say the least.

Lynelle is still sharpening her skillset, but even at her size, you can see the upside is there… especially with an older sister getting quality minutes in a high-level P5 program. Lynelle has some of the same characteristics, and coaches are excited to see her development this summer. The extra work she’s putting in with her trainers and coaches will be on full display against some tough EYBL competition.

was one of the tallest prospects at this event and she held her own. Awou stands at around 6’2-6’3 and she is extremely dominant near the paint with her back to the basket. Throughout the weekend she did a great job at fighting for her space and doing her work early on in possessions to help set herself up for success later on during the same play. She also demonstrated that she can wall up and contain any other prospect that she may be matched up against near the basket on the defensive side of the ball. If she were to continue to keep working and her consistency stays up to par, she is going to have a bright, bright future on the hardwood.

. Awou stands right at 6’3 and she usually has size on every matchup that she faces throughout a contest. This is a big advantage for Awou and any team she is playing with. In this case, the group she is running with now for the AAU season is The Midwest Meanstreets 2025 Nike team. This group has a couple special individuals but one of their most dominant is Awou. I’ll be stopping in Saturday to watch these guys compete and I’m hoping to see their best effort.
