Expert Analysis
Brandon Fisher | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Nyla is a confident lefty shooter who consistently looked comfortable from the perimeter. She stood out as one of the best passers I saw all weekend and showed great vision in creating for others. The effort level was clear as she dove on the floor multiple times for loose balls. With the ball, Nyla has good handles and uses change of pace and direction to keep defenders off balance. She protected the ball well on drives through the lane and finished on either side of the basket.

Murray State offered last August. Quick guard with long arms. Does a great job applying on-ball pressure forcing turnovers. Southpaw creates off the dribble, keeping her head up to find teammates. Averaged 20.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, 6.9 assists and 5.5 steals. Netted 47 threes at a 27% rate.

After impressing me in the 3 on 3 games, Black came out in the 5 on 5 games and opened up by hitting a deep 3 from the wing. Constantly runs the floor and the whole team feels the difference when she is on the floor.

Effortlessly finds a way to get to the basket. Lefty. Does a great job of slipping in cracks and likes to finish with a scoop shot on either side of the basket. Keeps her head up and does a nice job of finding teammates. Will knock down the 3 from the wing. Hit the sudden death winner!!

The long-armed lefty has a ton of tools in her bag. Known as being an electric scorer at Horizon Christian, with AEBL she can take a backseat and let others do the heavy lifting, transitioning as more of a playmaker. Black has a quick first step and long strides which get her to the rim in a blink. She makes zippy passes that cut through the defense to open teammates for easy buckets. I like Black’s defensive presence on the perimeter. With her speed and activity, she pokes away steals and gets into passing lanes. Nyla recorded 11 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 1 block in a 70-52 win over SC Eagles.
