Was a part-time starter for Elon (15 games) this past season as the small forward, noted for her defense, strong rebounder and good shooting range (led team in 3-pt shots made); 6-1 SF who averaged 7.8 points, 4 rebounds, 4 steals pg.; shot 83.3 % from the FT line; gained a couple of years of eligibility due to the NCAA Covid rule. Originally signed with St. Peters out of HS in Stafford, Va before transferring to Elon. Will be graduating in May as an honor student with a B.S. in Sports Management.

With the addition of Ajia James I still think we could use another post player (6'3-6'5) to round out this team.As this team is currently structured we will be a real problem in the CAA but another strong post player could make us a threat to everyone,power 5's included.

And to the chagrin of my friend OSA. I want another slasher to go with Tucker that flat out can create and go get offense on her own.

Still need shooters James was not a great 3-pt shooter but she was the best on Elon's team and she would have been top two on our team. Our best 3-pt shooter was Talia Davis who shot 40% but only took 52 shots with 21 makes. She's in the portal. Bracone had our moat makes at 47 but she hot only 24% this year. She a had realy off year. Last year she had 69 makes for us and in 2021-22 she had 71 makes. Our worst 3-pt shooter with at least 50 attempts was Paris Locke who shot 18% James had 47 makes, the exact same as Bracone, and shot 29%. Although not a "shooter" she could add more points from the arc. |

More then anything this team needs more Quickness and speed at the guards position. Don't get it twisted we are a fast team at the guard position but we are not a quick and fast team at the guard position. |

we can "develop" our own shooters if we have players who are willing to "put in the work". shooters like steph curry and catlin clark aren't just "born shooters". they both "put in the work" when the general public ain't watching. we just see the "finished product" on tv, but we don't see the "behind the scenes" work that goes into becoming a so called "shooter". as long as we have enough players who have the willingness to "put in the work" (called "work ethic") and as long as our players have 24 hour/7 days a week access to our basketball facilities, we can "develop" our own shooters... |

You are partly correct. Shooters are not born but made from years of training physically, mentally, and shooting form technique. Steph and Caitlin were very good Shooters entering college. They just continue to tuned their skills while at college by continuing to work hard at their craft. Expectation should be moderate to low in getting someone who shoots 30% or lower at the 3-pt line to shoot over 37% or better in one season. That is my definition of a good 3-pt shooter. Over 40% is a great shooter. Over a college career that is definitely doable if they work hard at it to go from below 30% to over 37%. So if we pickup a player shooting 25% then don't expect them to shoot more than 32% the following year and that is being generous. Work ethic can't fix everything (you did not say it did to be clear), so I "would like" for us to pickup an actual shooter we don't have to work hard in developing but positioning herself to be ready to launch at any moment. Just me. |

Work ethic can't fix everything (you did not say it did to be clear), so I "would like" for us to pickup an actual shooter we don't have to work hard in developing but positioning herself to be ready to launch at any moment. Just me. totally disagree that "work ethic" can't fix everything (as long as you're physically healthy) and i definitely disagree that it takes "years" of training physically, mentally, and shooting form technique to become a great shooter. rather, i would argue that developing a shooter "from scratch" only takes "weeks" not "years" to develop. for experienced basketball players, it could take around 4 to 5 weeks to develop a good shooter but the catch is that it doesn't stop once you're there. you have to develop an "ongoing continuous" shooting routine to become a "consistent" shooter. honestly, its all about "muscle memory" and it doesn't take "years" to develop "muscle memory". in other words, steph curry still does the same things he did to become the world's best 3 point shooter. its called a "shooting routine" which really is a significant workout 4 to 5 times a week depending on whether you're in season or off season. some of your best shooters wakeup early in the morning (like 5am) to get in their shooting routine, others may choose to put their work in during other hours. but the bottom line is that its a "routine" that never stops except when taking a summer break, vacation, or something like that. i promise you, if steph "stopped" doing his normal "shooting routines", he'd be shooting "bricks" just like everybody else... |
