High-Level Athlete
She possesses excellent mobility, coordination, and endurance, which allow her to run the floor well, establish position, maintain contact, and compete even against bigger and stronger opponents.
Complete Offensive Skill Set
A versatile scorer capable of creating her own shot, attacking the rim, and finishing with finesse. Her strong ball-handling skills allow her to read and beat defenses effectively, and she is comfortable scoring from all three levels: at the rim, from mid-range, and beyond the arc.
