Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 4408942, member: 9844"] Agree with the assessment. Just want to add I haven't heard anyone gushing about her ability to pass, an obvious key requirement for a point guard. Being 6-2 and having a decent handle doesn't make you a point guard. She probably is fairly versatile, but point guard is a mindset in addition to physical skills. Being able to play positions other than your main one is obviously a plus, but from what I have seen Prosper's best position for college and the pros is SF. Some players can use their recruitment to limit their choices to schools that would play them at the position they most want to play, or the position they would most likely be considered for on the next level. That of course is their right. But some may not have a realistic perspective on their own abilities and how they fit in a college or pro environment. I'm sure there are lots of examples, but didn't Angel Reese have some of the same perspective, envisioning herself as more of a wing coming out of high school. She could handle the ball, and bring it up on occasion, but clearly with her unorthodox style and physical skills was extremely effective inside. Her future is best served by being the best 4 she can be, just like Prosper's future would probably best at the 3, trying to emulate Maya as you say, while still being versatile enough to sometimes play elsewhere. She probably has a bright future, but i will be very surprised if it is at PG. [/QUOTE]
