Natalie is a strong defender who never gives up on a play, showing the ability to make chase-down steals and blocks. She moves her feet well and applies pressure to ball handlers as soon as they cross half court, making it difficult for them to get comfortable and establish their offense. On the other end, she has a nice spin move into a floater in the paint and does a good job attacking the basket and drawing contact to get herself to the free-throw line.

I’ve scouted Natalie’s game before, but watching film on her from a recent event at Spooky, it’s evident that there’s a lot of hard work going on behind the scenes! She looks more confident than ever before and her shot selection is impressive. Great job mixing up the scoring on drives and 3’s. Defensively, she’s committed to her assignment & competes on every possession; moves well laterally to stay in front of her matchup & apply some pressure.

Natalie is a versatile scorer who can knock down shots from both the mid-range and three-point line. When defenders run her off the arc, she does a great job getting into the paint and using a controlled floater. She’s quick in transition, making her difficult to catch on the break, and finishes effectively with either hand around the rim.
