There was earlier discussion of the game. At one point, Donovan and/or Dudley were POIs. I’m not sure what their current status is.

Thank you for posting it. I wanted to know the result of the game.

Top 20 Power Forwards in California high school girls basketball ​

​

Kennedy Smith – Etiwanda – SO.​

Many consider Smith to be the best 2024 player in the state regardless of position, and she’s one of the best PFs in the state regardless of class as well. As a freshman playing almost exclusively the four, she averaged 22.4 points, 11.7 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 2.8 steals per game while dominating some of the best upperclassmen in SoCal head-to-head. This season, Smith leads the top team in the state with 18.7 points, 9.3 rebounds, and two blocks per game, and also averages three steals and two assists a game as well. At 6-1 with good measurables across the board, she has both the physical tools and the complete offensive repertoire to score in any fashion. That includes a strong jumper, the handles of a wing, a deadly post game from both the high and low posts, and great overall touch around the rim. Smith has also emerged as one of California’s top defensive players as well, protecting the rim and guarding bigs as the Eagles’ de facto five while at other times being assigned to opponents’ top perimeter threats.

Mackenly Randolph – Sierra Canyon – SO.​

Last season, Randolph averaged 22.7 points, 13.5 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game for the CIFSS Division 1 quarterfinalist to fulfill and maybe even exceed the immense hype surrounding her as a freshman. It’s commonplace that basketball fans assume that the daughters and sons of former pros automatically have the same type of game as their parents, but she really has numerous gifts that trademarked the career of her father, former NBA All-Star Zach Randolph. That includes a deadly mid-range jumper; polish in both the high post game and low post game, and a natural feel for scoring through interior defenders; a strong build and natural sense of physicality to dominate the glass; and the fluidity and skill in space to handle the ball and finish off the dribble. Randolph is also a major three-point threat whose mere presence at the five greatly helps space the floor for an offense filled with driving threats. She’s definitely a forward, not a five, at the next level though. She’s currently ranked as a 4-star recruit and top-20 prospect in her class.

Harper Peterson – Whitney (Rocklin) – SO.​

Her numbers don’t pop off the page on a young Wildcats team that plays a brutal schedule, but Harper is one of better frontcourt players in NorCal already, and is one of the state’s highest-upside 2024 prospects. The 4-star prospect averages 14.1 points, 9.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 2.4 steals, and 1.2 blocks per game, and knocks down 1.5 threes per contest as well. At 6-3 with long arms and serious guard skills, she could legitimate play 3-5 on a nightly basis at the high-major level.

[TeamFirst!]

Ice's team plays tougher competition level teams than a lot of the players we've recruited. It's a fairly big school with almost 400 kids per class and they play a lot of similar sized schools. They are one of the largest private schools in southern CA and they play similar such schools.

I think we're going to really enjoy that left handed Ice Brady jump shot for the next four years......

She looks fitter.

 

[Charliebball]

She looks fitter.

she's trimmed down significantly in the last year and a half.........still some more work to get UConn fit but she has made major progress in that area........

 

[Charliebball]

I wonder if she has a D1 level talent.

I'd say yes absolutely........certainly not UConn good but good enough for a decent DI program

 

[Charliebball]

I wonder if she has a D1 level talent.
