Continue ReadingMany skills were on display at Kentucky’s PGH Expo on Sunday, none more so than scoring ability. Numerous players showed off their ability to put the ball in the basket and did so from a variety of levels. Here are the players who most stood out for their scoring ability on Sunday.
Abby Holtman Abby Holtman 5'11" | SF Ryle | 2023 State KY , Ryle- Already a well-regarded prospect, Holtman looks to have taken the next step as an elite offensive player. Her outside shooting was especially impressive, as Holman hit a variety of step-back and off the dribble 3’s, as well as getting to the rim and converting at a solid rate.
Allison Wallace Allison Wallace 5'9" | SF Frederick Douglass | 2022 State KY , Frederick Douglass- The breakout player of the showcase in a lot of ways, Wallace put the ball in the basket at a terrific rate. Her mid-range game was her most impressive trait, with a nice array of floaters and jumpers, most of which found their mark. She also showed some nice inside scoring and outside shooting skills.
Lexie Moore Lexie Moore 5'9" | SG Owen County | 2022 State KY , Owen County- One of the top scorers in the state, it was no surprise to see Moore show off her offensive skills on Sunday. She is a pure shot-maker and was constantly on the attack, getting her own shot and making them at a strong rate.
Riley Neal Riley Neal 5'11" | SF North Oldham | 2022 State KY , North Oldham- While she didn’t show off as flashy of skills as others on this list, Neal used a variety of inside and moves to get most of her baskets. She also showed off a nice mid-range game and did as good of a job creating her own shot as anyone at the showcase.
Lacey Bradshaw Lacey Bradshaw 5'8" | SF Notre Dame | 2022 State KY , Notre Dame- An elite slasher, Bradshaw clearly understands that she’s at her best getting to the rim, which she did frequently on Sunday. Not only does she get inside, but she also scores at a great rate once she gets there, and draws contact as well for additional scoring opportunities.
Sophie Smith Sophie Smith 5'7" | CG Anderson County | 2021 State KY , Anderson County- While not necessarily one of the stars of the days, Smith did show off an array of scoring skills to produce points for her team. She had a nice euro step to get inside at one point and also knocked down some jump shots.
Jakayla Thompson Jakayla Thompson 5'9" | CG DuPont Manual | 2023 State KY , DuPont Manual- Maybe the player who took the fewest of anyone on this list, Thompson still managed to show off her skills without forcing the issue too much. She took smart shots from all levels and made a lot of them, showing her scoring ability despite the lack of volume.
