Has she been playing with a club? If so, how is she performing?

Not sure about Texas rules but in many (most?) states club or AAU basketball cannot run concurrent with the high school season . I think the best she can do is hire a personal trainer for individual basketball workouts.

Yeah, that was not a well thought out move. Hard to believe that both the parents and the MacArthur coach were asleep at the wheel.

My first reaction is that she got some bad advice. Possibly too many experts in her ear.

I am impressed with Edwards. I think she would be a great player here.

I'm also intrigued. Pro build, athletic, shows interior moves and finishing abilities with both hands, looks to have a high basketball IQ and good motor.

As always, I'd like to see her in game action.

I live relatively near both schools and cant understand why the local press hasn't dissected this more. Understand we need to be cautious when commenting on a high school student but unusual that the adults involved weren't called out.

Great read. Contains some cautionary tales regarding 15 year old Azzi and the use of social media. Very timely considering subject was covered in this BY thread just yesterday.

Possible Grad Transfers Next Year?

Would also point out to BYers that our posts are likely read by these same teens. Suggest we just descression in how we address issues.
 
Jaelyn Bates with 24 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 steals last night (2/6). She went 5-9 from three.

despite what some here may think, it's very possible that she will get a UConn offer in the coming weeks as a guard/wing option.............
 
And we saw the schools we’ve seen mentioned all along. Oregon, Oregon State, UConn, Notre Dame, Baylor, Louisville, UCLA, and this time - Ohio State.

I would defer to my ND friends but I didn't think she had an ND offer as they already have Clark and Bueckers targeted.................I have a feeling it's going to come down to the Oregon schools vs UConn.............

I spaced out and missed the first half. Unlike the Wayzata game where Bueckers was the only one who even wanted the ball, Bueckers' team mates seem to be engaged in the game. Only saw the first 5 mins of the 2nd half .
 
Hopkins wins 70-38. Bueckers had 14 in the 1st half and not much in the 2nd as the officials whistled her 3 times and she sat the last 7 mins or so. Nice to see the rest of Hopkins' roster contribute after their near choke last week. They have an 8th grader & a 9th grader who are both tall and play a lot of minutes. One is called Mnagi (or close to that) her brother is the leading scorer on Hopkins' boys team.
 
I watched part of the first half. The opponent had trouble with defensive pressure, so Hopkins was up by about 25 at the break. It was interesting to see Paige when it's not just highlights. She moves well, competes, plays defense, is smooth, and has skill and confidence. I didn't see enough to know that she's the best player in the country, but she's obviously very, very good. She needs to play for Geno.
