Point guard who sees the floor well. Is great in dribble drive action finding teammates on back cuts. Good on ball defender with athleticism.
Athlete who can do a little of everything. Rebounds hard with great explosiveness. Rotates fast on defense, closing out on shooters quickly. Can run the point at times, and is especially good pushing the ball up floor in transition. Finishes well in traffic using her body.
Knock down shooter from 3 when hands are ready to catch and feet balanced. Finishes well in transition and with her body.
Strong post player who does a great job maintaining a wide athletic base while posting up. Has good length and athleticism standing at 6’2 to be an immediate impact player at the next level. Rebounds and battles hard on the inside as well as being a decent shot blocker. Does a great job using her body to finish around the basket.
Small but strong guard who’s not afraid to get physical on both ends of the floor. Can handle the ball with pace and great change of direction making her shifty enough to get by initial defender to create. True competitor who flourishes in close games. Can finish efficiently with either hand.
Team first kid who makes all her teammates better around her. Plays strong off the high post with a quick first step to the cup. Extremely efficient player who’s built on fundamentals not flash. Physically strong enough to make an impact at the next level. Has high basketball IQ with limited turnovers. Has deep enough range to shoot a quality 3.
Tenacious on ball defender. Does an excellent job defensively using her feet to gain position. Can get out in transition and run.
Arguably one of the top shooters in her class in the country. Standing at 5’11, Ava has the size and length to be a dominant guard/wing at the next level. Has a high basketball IQ and knows when to make the extra pass. Excellent wing player to drive and kick to for a spot 3. Has the size and strength to get to the cup when ran off the 3 point line. One of the few players who can still hit a mid range jump shot.
Strong physically and mentally and an all around team leader. Best comparison would be a “Swiss army knife” because she can do it all! Can shoot the 3 but very crafty off the dribble. Finishes well in traffic with good sense on where to pick the ball up and use body finishing against physicality. Will be a top player in her class.
Crafty and quick guard off the dribble, with the ability to finish in traffic. Plays strong enough on takes to the basket to get the free throw line. Has decent jump shot, but can take you off the dribble quick with a simple rip and go.
