I am probably biased, because Azzi is my local girl, and I've been watching her since she was in 9th grade, but ...

Azzi was the only sophomore to win any major high school NPOY awards (she won 2 of 4).  Her junior year, she was recovering from injury and some skinny kid from Minnesota took all the awards.  Azzi's senior season was essentially eliminated by Covid.

Last season we beat some good teams, including two teams that beat us this year:  Texas, NC State, Duke, and Iowa.  In those 4 games, Azzi averaged 25.5 ppg and shot 53/47/100.

Here's a sample of what Azzi did in 10th grade, winning the D.C. City Championship (folks who saw Princeton this year may recognize Ellie Mitchell on the Georgetown Visitation team).  Azzi had 38.  The entire Visitation team also had 38.  That's still the arena scoring record.

When Azzi is healthy (regrettably, she appears to have her mother's knees), she is outstanding.  As Geno noted about both her and KML, she can break games open in 1-2 minutes.
