Rivera was probably in the 4th grade when I first saw her and her energy on both ends, as well as her skillset, immediately grabbed my attention. Her “on the court “ progression over the years has shown me her work ethic and desire to get better, and at the PGH Freshman Showcase, she didn’t hold back as she not only went off during the 3 on 3, dropping shots multiple ways, her explosiveness with the ball gave defenders problems see evaluations here

Rivera was another “Show Stopper” from the 3 on 3 see evaluation here, yet she has been impressing me since the 4th or 5th grade. Here’s the deal: she brings so much energy on both ends that it trickles over to her teammates, and if you pay attention to what I write and say, you know I love things you can’t teach. Her pull-up jumper, as well as her “stop and pop” gave defenders fits, but she’s shifty with the ball, and watching her thread the needle in traffic for assists had me smiling

Rivera grabbed my attention in probably the 4th grade, and time has flown, so did she with the ball as she blew defenders with ease and stayed under control to attack and score or dish. She made tough passes look easy, she dropped the jumper, and her “on the ball” pressure looked good, and one more time, #sizedontmatter when you can play

Rivera falls into that #sizedontmatter group yet the first time I saw her in elementary school, I knew she was on to something because of her energy, on b both ends of the court as well as her comprehension of the game. Here is my most recent sighting see evaluation here

Rivera grabbed my attention in the 5th grade and when she told me her name was MiMi I responded I can see see, that you can play, #sizedontmatter . Here’s the deal, she’s heady, stays under control, handles and sees the floor under pressure, and can score in the flow. Off the dribble, or from outside, she did a good job, especially showing the”catch and shoot” from deep
