Scouting Report from 2003 InfoSport Pro Basketball Combine

Physical & Mental: Small body. Good speed and quickness. Plays with a lot of heart and determination. Role player.

 

Ball Skills:  Quick with the ball. Keeps head up in transition to hit teammates ahead. Can handle the ball well under pressure defense. Size makes it difficult for her to see out of the trap. Right handed, and left needs work.

 

Offense:  Distributes the ball well. Sets teammates up to score with penetrate and passing. Capable of penetrating and scoring over bigger players. Has quick one-on-one moves. Slow release on shot. Shoots mid-rane ok, looks to pass first though.

 

Rebounding:  Not really effective on the boards because of her size. Will hustle after long rebounds.

 

Defense:  Quick feet and hands. Good on-ball defense. Scrappy. May have trouble against bigger guards. Hustles and plays hard to make up for size.


Game Knowledge:  Average. Looks to penetrate and dish. Understands the screen and roll.

 

Strengths:  Good defensive player. Very hard worker. Passes the ball well.

 

Opportunities for Improvement:  Be more vocal and show more leadership. Get in the weight room and look to score more often.

 

Overall Comments:  Great attitude. Positive player, accepts instruction/criticism well and gets along well with teammates and coaches.
