Symora put her stamp on Sunday’s games for Example Sports Academy 17U Wolfpack, playing a key role in the team’s Gold Bracket Championship run. Her relentless ball pressure produced steals in the backcourt and resulted in speedy transition layups with her right and left. One of her highlight plays happened when she snatched a defensive rebound and immediately fired a 3/4 length pass over the top to a sprinting teammate in stride for an assist. Symora attacked downhill to earn free throws, knocked them down, and buried a straightaway three with confidence. She showed her toughness by taking a charge and jumped into the passing lane for a swipe and score. Symora slashed off the dribble, drew the help, then dumped the ball to a waiting teammate at the rim for an assist. She drove downhill with a burst, absorbed the contact, and converted the layup. Symora’s presence on both ends and passionate play energized the team during the PGH Great Lakes Region Finals.

Symora Damon gets to her spots with ease offensively. She knows where she wants to go and she knows how she wants to get there. She is someone that can initiate the offense and make solid stands on defense within the half court when need be. Damon was getting to the rim with ease over her contests this weekend. When the defense would over commit, she would fed those around her and if things seemed force, she would pass it away and reset within their system. Example had a good showing throughout all grade levels during this one. They all showed their steady progression and that they continue to get better as they move back into high school ball for the month of June.

Throughout the high school season, we do not get to see much of Damon due to her not being in the IHSA fold. However, between streaming and film, she has not slowed down at all. The smoothness, the aggression, and her ability to create for herself just as well as for others have all helped set her apart. She is running with arguably the best AAU team in Illinois from a prospect standpoint, and if she can stand out with them, that will be a great look for college coaches.

The definition of fast is: moving or capable of moving at high speed. However, I personally think the internet could put Damon as a perfect example of fast! Good luck keeping her from driving to the basket, or going baseline! And she’s a bucket from deep, with handles that were born to dribble a basketball!

Damon’s skillset is way before her time, and her pace and athleticism are key to why she’s still the number one prospect in this class, as most P4 colleges agree. She has an instinct and feel for the game that comes naturally, and not too many prospects at this age can replicate that. Going into summer ball next year, she’ll be a main focus of the prestige example squad, and she’ll be able to show why she’s a true focal point.

Symora was an effective player on both ends for Example Sports Wolfpack 2026 at the PGH Victory Region Finals. She had a big eight-point first half in the semifinals and made some highlight reel plays in the finals. Symora grabbed an offensive rebound and dropped in a floater. She dished a smooth behind-the-back pass to a teammate in transition. Symora reversed the court with a quick between-the-legs dribble, accelerated downhill, absorbed hard contact, and finished the layup off the glass. She blew by a defender with a burst using an inside-out move and scored another tough, contested layup. Symora added a full-speed and one layup in the second half and made unselfish passes to teammates. She gave the team a spark on defense and was an excellent facilitator. Symora has been selected for the All-Tournament Second Team.

Damon has beautiful hang time moves to the basket- and it doesn’t matter if she goes down the lane, baseline- she will find the slightest seam and go! Her defensive pressure is a nightmare for opponents! Relentless on both ends, plays with such great pace! (Below on defense)

Damon just has another gear and feel for this game that a lot of players just don’t have. She plays with an extra bounce in her step, and can make plays with no hesitation. The multiple offers as a sophomore are a stamp on Damons potential and talent level. One of those players that you just simply have to see in person.
