Coming off an injury that prevented her from finishing travel ball with her Thunder team in July, you would have never known by the way Naomi played at the ID camp. Hulett is a throw back, pass-first point guard who showed a lot of grit on both ends of the floor. Hulett shot the ball well from the perimeter at camp, but there were at least two different times when she knew her shot was off, sprinted to the post, and got her own miss creating extra possessions for her team. What was just impressive to me was that she did not waste the extra possessions by trying to force a pass or take a bad shot. Instead, she got her team reset and got them a good shot at the basket. Naomi play very good defense as well, especially on the ball. Not only did she gain her teammates trust by getting the basketball to the best scoring option on most plays, but with her vocal leadership.

Gritting through a sciatic nerve issue, Hulett was less than 100% at GBCA Live. Her toughness and willingness to play helped the Mountaineers snatch a victory against Cedar Shoals. Naomi drained a pair of threes and was active on defense. In the 22-20 win, Hulett posted 6 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 5 steals. When healthy, her explosive three-point shooting along with her instinctual defending make her one of the top young guards in Northwest Georgia.

The first that jumps out watching Naomi play is how textbook her stance and form are shooting the ball. She has a wide, strong base and does a very nice job repeating her motion consistently on her shot. She does a nice job squaring up to the basket as well, especially after she receives the ball on curl action. She put that shooting ability on full display recently knocking down six threes in one game for North Murray. Hulett is not just a shooter and shown the ability to finish effectively with both hands on the break.

Speedy guard with a smooth shooting stroke. Burnett-Hulett can create off the bounce, get to her spots and knock down threes. She’s a playmaker who competes defensively and has the tools to contribute right away as a freshman.
