A nice combo guard that can play the point guard or shooting guard as if they were her main positions on the floor. Let’s handle the point guard position first. Great vision in the middle of the floor with her eyes up, looking to make that 25-30 foot pass in transition for an easy score. The vision is just as good in the half-court offense, reading the defense and seeing the cutter for the assist.

A shooter that can score off the dribble or on the catch. Shot looks smooth and in rhythm, never rushed. Excellent hustler that did not mind mixing it up to win that 50/50 ball for her team.

A player profile to check out as you will see the investment Emma makes in her game.

Listed as a combo guard but the vision and passing skills that Morgan possess are those of a point guard. When she has the ball in open floor you can tell she is setting the defender up.

Give this young lady a bad close out the helper defender may be in trouble because she is going to score or drop off the pass.

Fun player to watch on both ends of the court as she has quick hands getting deflections or steals for layups. Enjoyed the opportunity to visit with her this summer and amazing young lady. A player to follow for sure
