Expert Analysis
BJ Batson | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
If you have watched Parker play with Holy Innocents or during a travel ball tournament, then you know to expect when she steps onto the court. Smith is one of the very best shooters in her class and having watched her play several times recently I can say Parker is also one of the better passers as well. She did a great job of keeping her head up and making 3/4 court kick ahead passes to her teammates sprinting to the basket. Smith does a really good job of incorporating head fakes when she receives the ball on the perimeter, which was especially effective after establishing her prowess shooting the ball from outside. She is very quick handling the ball and finds other ways to score inside of the three point line on a regular basis. She rebounds the ball very well for her size.

Parker came off the bench and did a really nice job again for Holy Innocents. Smith has a very high basketball IQ which is needed playing on a team like Holy Innocents that travels around the country playing in big events. Smith is always calm, cool, and collected when she steps on the court. She is an excellent shooter from deep. She did a nice job in this game of using shot fakes to get defenders closing out off of their feet and then drove by them to the basket. Parker converted a nice floater on the baseline using that move. Smith is steady with ball and rarely turns it over. She plays with great effort on defense.
