The William Chrisman Lady Bears have an outstanding player in junior guard Giavanna (Gia) Moore. The shooting guard is super athletic and plays with a craftiness that you see mostly in college-age players. Gia has solid range on her jump shot from three and is a willing passer that has shown the ability to make plays for her teammates. She can get to the basket with either hand and uses her craftiness to score at the rim.
Gia is an elite-level defender. She can guard multiple positions and plays with intensity. Her lateral quickness and excellent speed, allow her to play passing lanes well from the help position. Gia rebounds at a high level and can start the break as well. Her basketball IQ is above average and she never seems to play out of control.
This season she has had 10 games where she has scored 15 points or more and has scored in double figures 14 times; averaging 13 ppg. Gia shoots 35% from 3, gets about 2 steals per game, grabs 3 rebounds per game, and shots 90% from the charity stripe. Gia’s solid play has translated in the lady Bears winning 7 of their last 8 games. As the regular season comes to a close a week from now, players like Giavanna will give the hoops community some exciting performances!
