I saw her mentioned before here. Surprised she hadn't been talked about more, maybe because she's from Calgary while most of the recent attention to Canadian HS talent has been on Toronto? Physically on video she looks like she has just as much a scary combo of size/athleticism as McCowan or Soares. Video can be deceiving but her ceiling looks higher than any other post in the class of 2021.
Yes and no. She immigrated to Canada when she was in Grade 8 (possibly Grade 7). Really raw as she was only introduced to basketball when she moved here. She was part of the Basketball Alberta program but had a long ways to go with respect to others in her class (e.g. Lattimore, Zingaro, Alexander) who also are freshmen this year.
It's still unclear as to how she'll fare this season because there were no competitions in Canada last year. I've noted before, it would have been interesting to see how she would play after moving to Ontario to play for Crestwood.
This is 100% accurate unfortunately. A lot of great players from BC, AB and even QC get overlooked for players in Toronto or Ontario.Toronto is 1/6th of Canada's pop (16%) so it's going to dominate everything up north.
As comparison, California is not even 12%.
