Expert Analysis
Brandon Fisher | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Michelle brought strong energy on the glass by skying for rebounds on both ends with intensity. On the offensive boards, she did a great job either tipping the ball in or quickly elevating for putbacks. She has a nice stroke that keeps defenders honest and a strong frame that allows her to play through contact. She finished well at the rim, consistently kept plays alive, and made her presence felt defensively with a few big, emphatic blocks.

Ezumah had stretches of the game where she flat out dominated the competition. She has very good size and strength which she used well for positioning in the post and blocking out to grab rebounds. One very impressive sequence saw Ezumah grab the rebound on one end drive the ball coast to coast before using some excellent footwork to finish around the defender. She handles the ball great for a player her size and position. Offensively Ezumah played on the attack with aggression and was able to impose her will at times. She finished the game with 22 points, 15 rebounds, and four blocks.

Ezumah keeps improving with added strength and balance. She’s a relentless rebounder, scoring second-chance points and finishing with her left. Now more mobile with the ball, Ezumah can initiate transition and attack off the bounce. Elite defender.

Once Michelle arrived after missing the first portion of the first half, everything changed in favor of Lanier. Ezumah is an elite rim protector and rebounder with a non-stop motor. She beat the opposition down the floor to clean up misses on transition layups for putbacks. Michelle maneuvered for buckets with her back to the basket just below the free throw line, showing deft footwork and a soft touch in traffic. Michelle mustered 12 points, 5 rebounds, 3 steals and 4 blocks in a 41-34 win over Jackson County. Listed at 5-foot-11, Ezumah is as impactful as any post in the state of Georgia.

The defensive ace blocked 3 shots per game while adding 4.4 points and 8.2 rebounds. Ezumah has an immense wingspan which she uses to alter all shots that come her way. Michelle will need to get stronger, but her paint activity is already superior to those around her.
