Expert Analysis
Alyx White | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Alexander is one of the most strong power forwards on this list. She plays with one of the most highly regarded centers in the state, and yet she’s managed to track almost the same amount of rebounds in her 1st 2 games of the season. She’s shown an ability to score both inside and out in those games as well. Alexander is a disruptive defender as well. She can block shots and grab rebounds really well. She really adds a lot whenever she’s on the floor and she should continue to be a major factor for her Butler squad.

Alexander has a very strong body and good speed that she will be able to showcase for more minutes after her teams starting Center has moved on to the next level. She is great at sealing off her side of the lane for rebounds or to receive the post entry pass. But also has the ability to play away from the hoop on the offensive end. rnPlaying for a fairly loaded team with a crowed frontcourt last season I doubt I would even be aware of Alexander if I hadn’t attended an early practice before the games began. That gave me a chance to get ahead of the curve on scouting this player who will surely energe this year as a player everyone is going to know about. She will be featured in every scouting report written on Butler for the next three years. rnI, for one, really look forward to seeing what she can do with the extra minutes.

Alexander puts the power in Power Forward. She is very strong and brings a mobility to the court that not every player with her size can. I was impresed by what I saw from her in a practice before last season began and based on what I have seen she is baout to make a leap forward this winter. rnShe was very effective on the back of the Zone last season and I expect she will continue to be an effective rebounder and shot blocker going forward. She is the heir apparent in a crowded frontcourt replacing some of the minutes and touches Butler lost to graduation.rn
