Expert Analysis
Evan Bell | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Paige has clearly been putting in the work since last summer. She checks the boxes needed to play the college game as a forward. Long, physically developed, filled-out frame, mobile, and a two-way difference maker. Paige stood out in 2v2 with her length, athleticism, and great hands in the paint. She caught a pass, spun, and finished off two, then attacked downhill hard off the dribble, finishing the contested layup with strength at the rim. In games, Paige continued to impose her will inside. She muscles her way to the front of the basket and dominates once she gets there. Paige sealed her defender with a strong, wide stance, presenting an open target, then pivoted to score layups off two feet with her right and left. Paige made a smooth transfer for a catch and finish off two feet and powered up to score through hard contact for another layup. She works hard to defend in the post, battling for the advantage, and wins battles for rebounds. Paige raised her stock and was a Top Performer at the Zero Star Showcase.

Read EvaluationEvan Bell | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Paige had a very productive sophomore season for a Negaunee team that finished the regular season ranked in the top 25. She received Mid-Peninsula Conference All-UP Second Team honors and recognition as WestPAC First Team All-Conference. Paige is effective in the screen and roll. She finishes well off two feet, scores through contact, and can push the ball up the court to score in transition. Paige moves her feet well to cut off drives and blocks shots with good body control to avoid fouling. She anticipates passes from help and uses her length to create steals. Paige is a physical and determined rebounder who gives the Miners an advantage in the front court.
