Went to see Hailey Van Lith play this morning - last day of the Phoenix Adidas Gauntlet.  She's a "big" 5'9", very solid - definitely not a "needs some time in the weight room" prospect.  At first she didn't appear to be super athletic, and she couldn't hit anything mid-range or from 3.  But, boy can she take you off the dribble.   Really, really quick first step, and strong - she can blow by you or just muscle her way in.  And acrobatic finishes at the rim, plus she always seems to get fouled, and the ball always seems to find its way into the hole.

She also threw a lot of WNBA-worthy, thread-the-needle, no-look passes.  Great court vision and passing skill. However, more often than not, the teammate she was passing to was just as surprised as as the other team was, ending up in a turnover.  Don't know how long this team has actually played together though - definitely fixable with experience. There seemed to be a little bit of a 'hot dog' element to it, too.
