Not impressive at all,, to allow lesser players to play hero ball instead of running your offense through your best player......just stupid I am guessing your impressed with all the hero ball she allows over actually trying to run a good offense through her best player?
Zack, give it up. He will never change his position. He entrenches the more you debate with him. Even though you bring up some irrefutable facts.

McKenna was really impressive tonight despite quite a few ball hoggers on her team. She had a double double and was just overall good and a really versatile player. Super excited for next year especially with the addition of Carnegie
Crazy stat line 10 pts, 13 rebounds and 6 assists and she still only 17. Wow....

She seems so polished and versatile! How she adjusts to college early will be fascinating to watch.

Curious for those who watched and remember, how did ADdie look in these games last year? Wondering if they offer any clues into how quickly a player can contribute as a frosh.

In the McDonalds game Addie didn't really have much of an impact, In fairness to her while many of the guards were hunting shots she really did seem like she was trying to play team first type of ball.

McKenna is the real deal, IMO she was the most impactful front court player on the court in a game of who's who of the top high school/foreign prospects going into college. These games are usually dominated by guards and last night was no different yet McKenna found ways to make a difference. She played team oriented ball, Played well defensively both on the perimeter and interior. She has long arms and gets off the floor quickly and has a quick 2nd jump going for rebounds. You can see why she is rated as one of the best players in the country and got selected to represent the USA in various international tournaments.

I don't believe she ever played on the USA select teams because she was too old for her age group. She was 19 at this point last year and 20 when she got to Iowa. McKenna is only 17 at this point, one of the youngest on team USA's 18 and Under squad...
