Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 4293322, member: 2117"] It was 7th on the team. She shot 26% from 3 in HS. Not great by any means but far better than going 1/31. [URL='https://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/saniya-rivers/zxE80Ay9EeqAzqREozo6lw/girls-basketball/stats.htm']HS Stats Link[/URL] What surprised me most was just how badly she missed shots. Like routinely shooting airballs or hitting the side of the backboard. From her HS footage I thought she had potential to be the next Angel McCoughtry. Tall wing, extremely athletic, great at taking the ball to the basket, not a great shooter but capable, great defender, solid passer, etc. None of that really transpired on the court at SC and she never looked confident or in rhythm. Her strengths never fit SC's style of play this year, since the offense didn't utilize much slashing and was largely about pounding it inside and finishing around the basket. It worked and got them a championship, but I can see how Rivers feels like she wasn't the right puzzle piece for the program. [/QUOTE]
