Expert Analysis
BJ Batson | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Cyrus once again impressed running the point forward position for the majority of the game for Loganville Christian. A role she has mastered the last few years and one she will continue in college. Cyrus’ movement at her size is a rare quality. couple that with her ability to handle the ball and she is a matchup nightmare for almost every team that LCA plays. She is a walking double-double and when she asserts herself scoring the ball, Loganville Christian can play with anyone. Cyrus recently committed to her future home and that announcement should be coming very soon.

She knocked a down a couple tough midrange jump shots with a hand in her face. Cyrus also did a nice job rebounding the basketball.

Sanai played tough this weekend in her home state. She’s a strong, physical forward that is incredibly hard to stop when she’s going downhill with her size, frame, and willingness to draw contact. Her handles and ability to shoot it from outside are really beneficial for her position since she’s a tweener standing under six foot tall at the 4 spot. That shooting ability allows her to stretch the floor and keep defenders honest though. Big upside with Sanai’s game!

Sanai brings a lot of potential to the court. She has a developing skill set and looked more than capable on the perimeter. She lead the break a few times during the games. She is a confident player and did not back down from an opportunity. With her build and mobility she’s a tweener that can play the interior forward position or the wing. I’m sure Dacula is excited to get her on the court this year.
