Ashlynn Shade: 24 points, 8 rebounds, 5 steals


Ashlynn Shade (2023 Noblesville HS): A highly talented guard that can do it all on both ends of the floor and showed the ability to take over a game. She does a great job attacking off the dribble to score around the paint as well to pulling up in the mid-range. A skilled scorer who can beat defenders in a number of ways who also hit jumpers from beyond the arc. She Is strong with the ball in her hands and accelerates well all the way to the basket. Shade also impressed with her defensive ability playing with a great motor. She put good pressure on the ball getting several steals and converting many of them into transition baskets. As well, she even had a couple of blocks in the game. It is very easy to see that Shade is not just one of the best sophomores in Indiana or the Midwest, but the entire nation.

...but I can tell you that La Holla County Day with Te-Hina Pao Pao and Breya Cunningham edged Sierra Canyon by a point for the overall title.

Cunningham should be on UConn's radar at some point soon.

December UConn Recruiting Thread

Dominique Darius made the all tournament team and is listed at 6'1". I'm hoping that really is the case. Have always liked her leaderships.defense, and ability to play the role of Robin next to a batman type like Miles. Doubtful that UCONN is interested Darius but she is going to make some...

That was almost one year ago to the day, and I wish I hadn't said "soon."


Chris Dailey has started following 2023 post Breya Cunningham on social media.

Cunningham starred at last year's Jr NBA global championships and is ranked 4th by Blue Star and ASGR, and 7th by ESPN.
 
Saylor's senior season was pushed back again. Games were set to start January 5, delayed until January 19.
 
Last year's Cal-Hi sports players of the year included Isuneh Brady among sophomores and Breya Cunningham among freshmen.

I probably posted this previously to highlight Brady and Kiki Iriafen but here is some of Cunningham's write-up:


“Breya exceeded all expectations we had for her this season,” said La Jolla Country Day head coach Terri Bamford, who last summer predicted Cunningham would be one of the top posts in the country and the best in Torreys’ history.


Cunningham averaged a double-double 17.3 points and 11.8 rebounds with 3.3 blocks per game, and did this on a Cal-Hi Sports No. 1 ranked team where Ms. Basketball Te-hina Paopao had the ball in her hands a lot of the time. Unlike a lot of freshmen that have a hard time converting in the paint Cunningham was smooth after the catch and shot 61 percent from the field.

...

“She learned to play and guard without fouling,” Bamford remarked. “I feel she is one of the best post players in the country. Breya has great hands, she keeps the ball high and is a very efficient scorer. Her consistency in scoring and rebounding this season was one of the keys to our team’s success this season.”


Cunningham may only be a 14-year-old freshman but not surprisingly colleges are already taking notice of her prowess.


“Breya has a tremendous upside,” Bamford said. “She’s 6-foot-3, athletic, runs the floor, can defend both in the post and on the perimeter, can score on the block and has a good midrange game. She’s working on her perimeter game this off season and that will make her a complete player. Breya has multiple offers already and from power five schools. She may be La Jolla Country Day’s next great.”

The fact that she can post up, drive, and finish using both hands is delicious.

It appears she doesn't mind the contact. I love it!! Carnac predicts matchup nightmares for UConn opponents in the very near future. Few teams will have the personnel to stop one of them, let alone BOTH!
 
Isn't Isuneh Brady class of '23? I thought she was in the top 5?? Did she get demoted for choosing UConn?
 
This site got nine coaches/writers/directors to answer some questions pertaining to the 2021 class. Of them, five said Azzi Fudd was the best player they have seen live or coached against from the class. One of the others was notorious anti-UConn pest Kenny Kallina. I'll never forget when Kallina claimed four years ago that Fudd was the third best guard entering high school. Not third best player, third best guard.

Keeping them honest. Thanks, @Sluconn Husky.
 
I'd be real happy with a 2 person class in 22-Brady and Barker. It seems like Brady is a 4/5 and Barker is a 3/4, so a good mix. I don't think we have a shot at a top 5 PG the next couple of years-until Paige and Nika are Seniors. At that point a top PG might be willing to come in and play behind them for their last year. They would certainly get some playing time with the blowouts that team will have. Same thing with SG. Even if Westbrook leaves after this year how many minutes will be available to another SG not named Azzi with Saylor and Caroline Ducharme also able to play at that spot. It's truly an embarrassment of riches!

UCONN is just "bad" for WCBB !!!
