TOP Forwards
#23 Kendra Gillispie, Sophomore, 6’1, Norman HS, OKC Lions Elite
Very active on the offensive end. Plays inside and outside of the paint but often outside of the paint. Comfortable around the short corner and on the perimeter. A threat in pushing the ball up the floor with ease and breaks down defenders in the process.
#0 Olivia Clayton, Junior, 6’3, Checotah HS, OK Swarm 17U BlueStar David
Due to her length and height, she can play a solid Center if needed. On the other hand, due to her length and body type, she can also be a power forward. Her mobility can also provide her a chance to become a stretch 4 player.
#21 Mikaela Hall, Sophomore, 6’0, Lawton IKE, OK Swish
Lives in the short corner…has plenty of moves to execute at short corner off the drive. Intense and physical as she drives. Not afraid to embrace all contact on her moves, as she drives towards the basket and as she finishes.
#25 Darianna Littlepage Buggs, Freshman, 6’1, Forward, Classen SAS, THSS Mavs Elite
Plays anywhere inside of the perimeter and can do some damage. Her length and skill ability allow her to bypass many opponents. It was great to see her branching outside of the perimeter to add to improve guard skills, witnessing more outside shots than she normally shoots.
