A smooth lefty that showed her ability to do a little bit of everything during the 3v3 session of the Expo. She played under control and at her own pace. She did a great job of changing pace on offense, keeping defenders off balance and guessing. She showed an ability to bang down low, but also used great footwork to counter. McCarty showed great instincts on the defensive end, showing passing lanes and blowing up plays before they got started. Taylor also delivered several long-range threes throughout the segment.

Taylor gets it! Best overall performance for Team 1. Taylor is an Elite Communicator and a leader on the floor. She can finish with either hand at the rim and knows how to use the glass. She knows when to shoot and when to pass. She takes the right shots no matter the area of the floor, but she is deadly in the mid-range and around the basket. She has good touch for her 3 to 6-foot shots at the rim and doesn’t rush her shot at all. She can guard on the wing or in the paint for the most part, and has an overall game that is positionless.

A versatile 5’10” forward who really operates well in the high post area with her skill set. She can pass it well on the high-low, attack off the dribble or knock down the 15 foot jumper. Being a lefty also works well for her. She is continued to expand her game as she handled the ball well in the open court and dropped a few nice dimes in transition.
