More detailed stats from Toomey's game on 12/23.

Toomey was named the Times-Tribune athlete of the week for that performance.

The 6-foot-4 junior scored 27 points on 13-of-15 shooting for the top-ranked Lady Bucks, and added four rebounds, four blocks and four assists.

OMG, she is 6-4! Merry Christmas, Gus!

They have already played. Go to this link on Youtube and scroll backwards Dunmore is the first game I believe.

Well, she looks 6-4.

How good is this player, and what position does she play? Has UConn offered her a scholarship?

To add to what Coco said, some think she is the best player in the world in her year/age group. She just turned 16 last month. In contrast, Azzi turned 19 last month. Juste began playing on the Lithuanian Senior National Team at age 13. She's playing as an amateur in a pro league on a Tony Parker team. How good is she? Really, really, really, really good.

I've seen quite a bit of video of KK and I agree. She's a terrific young lady. "Joyous" is the best way to put it and she's in her element. This girl LOVES playing basketball. It's great to hear that she's a good defender also. I think she's an under rated find. She has a good pull up jumper and a great handle. Continued work on the 3 pointers will be a plus and she leads her team in rebounding as a point guard? She's 5' 10" now which is decent size.

What will the post-Paige Bueckers era look like for UConn women’s basketball? Meet 2023 commit KK Arnold

UConn women’s basketball fans don’t need to worry about what the post-Paige Bueckers era in Storrs will look like quite yet. In the meantime, coach Geno Auriemma has found the player wh…

She's maybe 5-7. No way she's 5-10.

Catch the after game interview where KK's niece and nephew are brought in to the interview with her whole team standing as a backfrop So sweet. They are adorable.

And KK shouts out UConn Nation at the end

Any news on Toby Fournier, 2024 from Crestwood Prep in Canada? She's impressive, beyond her dunking ability.

 

[TeamFirst!]

She's maybe 5-7. No way she's 5-10.

Kids can grow. Alexa Phillipou of the Hartford Courant is a good reporter and it's right there in the article. Maybe she's closer to 5' 9" but she has probably grown. We forget she still has a year left of high school next year. She comes in after Ice and Ayanna doesn't she?

Yes, Arnold's in the '23 class.

Phillipou probably gets 5-10 from KK's team page, but there's no way. Paige is supposedly 5-10 and she's much taller than Arnold. KK is listed at 5-6, 5-8, and 5-9 at three of the scouting outlets. It's certainly possible she's gotten taller but she used to be a half pint.

From Prospects Nation:

Kate Koval – 6-5 – 2024 - Long Island Lutheran​

Koval was fantastic in my first evaluation of her game. She has legitimate elite level length in the post.

Jordan Lee​

Lee flew across the country set to prove that she belongs in the elite category of backcourt players in her class. After watching her go off two days in a row coupled with my July evals, there is no doubt that she belongs.

Isn’t there an unwritten agreement that if there is to be a discussion about heights, it must be in Hartley units?

based on that last video, no way KK is 5-10, even with shoes on

Wasn’t sure if we would hit the transfer portal but seems as though we will be on the hunt for a guard. I get that from seeing that Morgan Valley has recently followed Alyza Winston a Michigan St guard who is in the transfer portal.

 

[TeamFirst!]

Paige is listed at 5' 11" on the Uconn women's basketball roster page and I've seen her listed at 6' elsewhere. There is a little skew on different sites.

I watched most of the game you posted above. (thanks) I could buy 5'8 but that's where I top out for now.

 

[TeamFirst!]

KK is only a junior. We should expect that she is growing some.

 

[hard2please]

1.09 hartley units is the estimated hofr (height on freshman roster)

Afraid not. Typically young ladies stop growing at the age of 16. KK turned 16 in May of this year.
