For starters, she’s 6-3 and capable of playing on the perimeter or on the box. She has a motor that never quits, and simply put, plays harder than everyone else on the floor.
She is capable of bringing the ball up, shooting the three, attacking the rim off the dribble or posting up. She dominates the offensive and defensive glass and shuts down the opponents’ post players.
As a sophomore playing on the wing, she averaged almost 15 points and seven rebounds per game. Last season as a junior, Manchester needed her to be more of an inside presence and she obliged, upping her numbers to 18 points and 12 boards per contest.
The new ESPNW rankings crew rewarded the North Carolina-bound Adams for her improved play by moving her from 35th to 20th in the updated Class of 2021 list.
The talented forward made her final AAU season a memorable one, using her rugged style to help Exodus establish itself as one of the best teams in the country.
