remains relatively unknown after missing her freshman season with a knee injury. However, Cook will likely entrust her with primary ball-handling responsibilities this season. Fortune plays with a strong basketball IQ, reading the floor like a much more experienced guard. Additionally, she offers more than traditional playmaking, showing the ability to create her own scoring opportunities. That scoring ability gives Western Branch another offensive threat alongside her floor leadership. Expect Fortune to shoulder a significant portion of the Bruins’ offensive load this season.

embodies that saying. After missing last season with a knee injury, she appears to have hit the ground running. A scoring point guard, Fortune also recognizes when to create opportunities for teammates. Furthermore, she directs the offense with the composure of an upperclassman. Whether in transition or the half court, Fortune delivers difficult passes to keep the offense moving.

Naomi had a good strong spring and summer with a deep Boo Williams team. Look for her to carry that momentum in her sophomore year! A hard nose defender that looks like a true combo guard. Was more of a role player on her AAU team but a good scorer that can get to the rim from the guard position that is a very good ball handler in the open floor with good basketball IQ!

Fortune is an aggressive player who makes an impact on both ends of the floor. She attacks the basket to draw fouls and creates second-chance opportunities with offensive rebounds. Defensively, she is active in traps and works to force turnovers.
