Superlatives for the best of the best that I saw this offseason.
5-6 PG Crystal Henderson Crystal Henderson 5'6" | PG Kell | 2023 State GA – WP Celtics Henderson – Kell
Possibly the best scorer in her class, Crystal Henderson Crystal Henderson 5'6" | PG Kell | 2023 State GA is on our Best Shooters list because that’s how she gets a majority of her points: a pure stroke. Henderson fills it up from the perimeter and is an elite shooter with deep range. She’s a microwave scorer that only needs to see one three drop before she pumps in three or four more. Henderson is one of the brightest young stars Georgia has to offer. She will play for more state championships over her career.
5-7 SG Elle Kenney Elle Kenney 5'7" | SG Cherokee | 2023 State GA – FBC Blitz 2022 – Cherokee
The picture-perfect shot of Elle Kenney Elle Kenney 5'7" | SG Cherokee | 2023 State GA caught my eye. Once she’s able to get squared to the basket, she’s a money shooter. Every time she shoots, it feels like her shot will go in. Kenney has a future as a premier three-point shooter in Cherokee’s well-balanced system.
5-9 CG Kirklyn Porter Kirklyn Porter 5'9" | SG Dawson County | 2023 State GA – Peak Performance Webb – Dawson County
Kirklyn Porter Kirklyn Porter 5'9" | SG Dawson County | 2023 State GA has good size and a dangerous jump shot to boot. She can attack the basket and also handle the ball, but her shot is what really separates her. She’s got an aggressive mindset and will have many opportunities to show what she can do on offense the next three years.
5-9 PG Diana Collins – FBC United The Family – Brookwood
Diana Collins makes everything she does look easy. She’s great at the buzzer, beating the clock multiple times during her freshman season, many coming from near halfcourt. She’s a well-rounded scorer that has a pretty three-point stroke.
5-5 PG Samiya Wayne Samiya Wayne 5'5" | PG Archer | 2023 State GA – FBC Black Nxt Gen JG – Buford
A great on-ball defender, Samiya Wayne Samiya Wayne 5'5" | PG Archer | 2023 State GA can also hurt teams on offense. She’s a good shooter with range that extends to the three-point line. Playing in Buford’s free flowing offense that is known for its guard play, Wayne should have a good handful of chances to show what she can do from the perimeter.
