showed off her defensive athleticism blocking a shot that looked like it was going to be an open layup off the tip. She makes effective cuts getting to the basket being ready for the pass and quick shots making adjustments on her way up. Her full court press was dangerous grabbing steal after steal and capitalizing on the turnovers.

is a special kind of talent that’s already been catching the eyes of high major colleges in her short high school career. Her shiftiness with the ball is fun to watch as she blows by defenders, and she can pull up quickly knocking down her shot from anywhere on the court. She finds the gaps on defense where she explodes in them to score some points of her own or makes the pass in between defenders hitting her teammates in stride.

came right out scoring off the jump sliding into the open lane and scoring off the pass. She’s quick handling the ball like a guard but can even get inside showing off some post moves on the block. She knew how to make one move to get by her opponents whether she was pulling up for the jumper or making it at the rim. Her shot blocking was on point during the game making sure her opponents didn’t have an easy basket.

is definitely a scoring machine being able to score on all levels and certainly putting the shooting in shooting guard. She has a finesse with the ball that she uses to get to the rim scoring off the glass, or she can pull up for her jumper knocking down her shot from over her opponents. She definitely plays with a much higher IQ than you’d expect from a young athlete, and I am definitely excited to see how she continues being a superstar in North Carolina.

Bynum is an elite level scorer who moves on the court like a seasoned basketball player. She has an advanced feel for the game and finds ways to display her offensive skill set, whether that be weaving through traffic or pulling up in rhythm. She also shows excellent balance, touch and body control. Her smooth release allows her to score at all three levels, and her composure makes her look more like a seasoned veteran than an underclassman. Bynum is sure to turn many heads going into her Sophomore year at Queens Grant High School.

has been racking up offers after dominating her everyone her freshman season. She took schools in the area by storm as she was averaging over 30 points a game. She isn’t just a scorer, though, as she truly shows her IQ on the court finding the open teammate or attacking the gaps to make the defense collapse. She’s feisty on the other end picking the pocket of her opponents.

is the top guard in this class, and it’d be difficult to find someone who thinks that isn’t a true statement. She was averaging well over 30 points her freshman season, but that’s not because she just shoots the ball all the time. She plays smart basketball creating the open looks for herself with her ball handling, and she knows the right time to put up her shot or make the dish to her teammates. She’s tough on defense, too, especially playing on-ball defense picking the pocket of her opponents.

is a very special player who certainly deserves national attention. She’s very special with the ball in her hands changing directions with speed to lose her defender. She’s quick on the other end of the court, too, being ready to close out on her opponents’ shots or jump in the passing lane to grab a steal. She scores on all levels, and she doesn’t back down from scoring through contact.
