Uriyah separated herself as one of the best players at Team Synergy practice a year ago, and I was very excited to see her registered for the P2W Headliners Invitational Showcase. Uriyah has added muscle to her frame, and she was one of the top prospects in the gym. Uriyah demonstrated good balance, footwork, and finishing touch with both hands in drills. She knocked down threes during the shooting station and continued to impress during games for Team Lynx. Uriyah blew by her defender off the dribble with a burst, switched hands in the lane, and scored through contact for the and-one layup. She drained a triple up top and delivered the shot of the day, swishing a half-court three-pointer at the buzzer to close out the game. Uriyah went by a defender using a quick crossover to score a floater, slashed to the hoop for a layup, then glided to the basket with patience and balance to score with her left. Uriyah used a pocket dribble, blew by her defender with a downhill burst, and switched hands for a smooth inside hand finish. She ran that sequence back on the following possession. Uriyah sprinted ahead to score runout layups, made good entry passes into the post, blocked a perimeter shot, and knocked down a triple in the slot. She’s a shifty, athletic, dynamic, and talented point guard playmaker who will be a program changer her first year of high school.
