plays like she’s got the keys to every game, commanding the court with craft, composure, and danger every time she touches the ball. She’s a do‑it‑all guard scoring around 17 to 18 points per game, facilitating with roughly five assists, grabbing six rebounds, and creating havoc with nearly three steals nightly. She’s not just scoring, she’s orchestrating, deflecting, and defending. She knocked down 22 points with four assists in the state tournament, and in another playoff push, she poured in 31 points in a win over West Linn. Her shot is real, too, joining those point totals with multiple three‑pointers. Committed to Portland, she’s still playing like she has everything to prove every time she’s on the floor. She doesn’t just control the game. She owns it.

is a playmaker with great handles and vision, and she’s a plus rebounder. Mangan’s not afraid of pressure defense, beating the double team on the dribble at the front of the press or launching accurate passes from deep in the backcourt to beat the end of it. Mangan has an excellent low and quick crossover to beat the defender or create separation for the pull-up jumper. She has the arm strength to launch deep threes. Mangan has an effective jab fake to get free and can drive and dish with the one-handed push pass or take it to the basket herself. She has excellent vision, slinging one-handed passes from the perimeter to the open player under the basket. Mangan scored 15 points with 9 rebounds and 8 assists against Auburn (Wash.).
