Physical & Mental: A thin 6-2 player. Not an
inside player, but has the height to outshoot her opponents on
the perimeter.
Ball Skills: Can handle the ball ok in the open court.
Above average for a post player.
Offense: Has a very nice tough on the ball. Nice
shooting stroke and quick release. Will hit the open shot. Great
passer who sees the floor quite well.
Rebounding: A perimeter player, despite her size. At
6-2, she will out rebound her perimeter opponents.
Defense: Has very long arms she could use more often.
Foot speed could be a little better.
Game Knowledge: Excellent. Reads defenses very
well. Seems to always know where to be at the right time.
Strengths: Height, versatility - can post up when
needs or shoot the three very consistently. Can pass well over
zones and presses. Sees the floor very well, makes teammates
look better, and throws very accurate, sharp passes.
Opportunities for Improvement: Some
weight room work. Could develop a more aggressive attitude.
Overall Comments: Highly
coachable. Unselfish teammates. Great cheerleader. Listens well.
Great personality and very positive. Had a great rookie
season in Europe and has improved in many areas since the 2002
InfoSport Pro Basketball Combine. Has a solid basketball
career in front of her, if she wants it.
