Love her demeanor also but that footwork is truly elite even by WNBA standards. She is really going to be hard to cover in the UCONN offense.

She’s so good. Wouldnt surprised me if she starts next year.
 
Brady sure seems like a Uconn type player. Ciera Toomey does also. Bigs who can pass and even shoot. OMG! Brady reminds me a little of a left handed Ayilah Boston. She's not as big big she looks like a similar rebounding force who can shoot as well. Skilled and determined. She even has a pretty decent handle.

Patterson matches up very well with some of SC players. We need both types of players. Patterson has the tools to be great. Hopefully she can withstand the Uconn environment. If she just focuses on rebounding and defense her transition should go smoothly. She's going to get put backs and short jumpers.

we agree that Tuck had the best footwork of any player under the basket in recent memory but at least from her high school video Brady may have a more complete offensive game.........I'll happily settle for a Tuck like career for Brady but without the injuries....

Tuck. I always was amazed that she could score so consistently even amongst taller defenders. She understood angles and scoring off glass. A rare skill today.

Also, Brady will be surrounded by just as much talent, imo, with better players joining the team during her sophomore season than joined the Tuck team during her sophomore season.

Ayanna seems to have seriously bumped up her free throw percentage from last year.
That's a good sign going forward in and of itself but it augurs well for her overall face-up game from mid-range.
I still think...at least for her frosh year...her main contributions will be in defense all over the court and rebounding.
She will be in the regular rotation and fun to watch.

I think I read that AP has improved her FT shooting from about 63% to 70%. Fairly respectable and headed in the right direction.

Premiere matchup of Joyce Edwards vs Chloe Kitts on Saturday. Kitts' team won handily while she played just 22 minutes.

Edwards: 26 points (8-20 FG, 10-12 FT), 9 boards, 2 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks
 
Morgan Valley has started following '25 Kayla Cleaveland, a 5-11 forward from Georgia. I can't find a lot of info on her save for this from Prep Girls Hoops and bit of video posted below.


2025 5-11 F Kayla Cleaveland – River Ridge

Fresh off the volleyball court, Kayla Cleveland made a monster first impression. The strong-bodied rugged forward made an impact right away. Cleveland banged inside, physically sealing off opponents when fighting for post position. The lefty has a soft touch in the paint but also can stretch the floor and shoot the three. Cleveland helped handle the ball on the perimeter in spurts and was able to attack off the bounce when driving lanes opened. Cleveland even showcased nice court awareness.

And the college coaches have taken notice. Longtime Connecticut Associate Head Coach Chris Dailey was at West High for Tuesday’s win over then-No. 10 Cedar Rapids Washington.

As the recruiting attention continues to gain steam, Williams has gone to work to improve her three-point shooting, ball handling, leadership and finishing around the basket. But that is not to suggest the 5-foot-11 slasher is just a threat on one end of the floor. Williams continues to display an all-around game with effort on the defensive end.

“At first, I was just kind of like a workhorse,” Williams said. “Just run, run, run. But now, I feel like I kind of understand learning matchups, who you are guarding and how to defend. When to use all of my energy.”

Maybe, haven't seen enough yet she may be good but is she going to be elite? So far there are others who are more impressive time will tell.
