Extremely fast and on ball defender. Learning her position to be more vocal, wants to learn the game. Very interested in getting better. Always in the gym. Good shooter, but is more of a team player. Can afford to be a little more selfish. Good in transition.
Madi Barnett, 5-6 2023, Kings
Really explosive athlete, also good kid and academically strong. Attacks at will and can score from perimeter. Gets to her spots. Strong build plays through contact like most of her team. Lockdown defender. Multidimensional.
