Emika Love has a lot to offer. Emika is skilled in every aspect of the game. Love rebounds and passes like a professional. Not only that, she has a great vision of the court. This allows her to make good decisions and commit fewer turnovers. Love is always looking for opportunities to score, not just for herself but her teammates as well. Emika can drive to the basket with pressure on her and score easily. She is also aware when she doesn’t have an open shot and is always looking for an open teammate. Emika is very aware of her surroundings. She averaged 18.0 PPG and scored a total of 449 points during her Junior season. Emika also averaged 8.0 RPG and 4.0 SPG. She helped her team achieve a 9-1 league record. Love has a very quick shot that is hard to guard, and her height makes it a lot more difficult. Overall, Emika has lots of spirit, and confidence when she plays. She has lots of potential to play at a higher level.

No matter how many times she fails, she uses that to improve for the next play. Heaven is a super-fast player and is really hard to guard because of her quickness. I am looking forward to seeing how well she does during her Senior season.
