Neal is a solid guard who brings strength and energy to the floor. Her high energy attitude is quickly adapted onto both ends of the court. She is quick to defend her position and fight for a rebound. On the offensive end Neal uses her strength to exert her will when getting into the lane and looking to dish to open players. She really did a good job of driving and kicking to open players in the half court. Finding her niche as a scorer is something she will need hone in her junior season of high school. Whether it is by spotting up and becoming a knockdown shooter or balancing her driving with some finishes at the rim, that balance is needed in her game.
A couple summers ago we noted we wanted to see more confidence with Neal's shooting from the perimeter and it's exactly what we got this winter. She was on point in the catch and shoot game. She has evolved from a downhill straight line to the rack hard player into a decpetive attacker off the bounce who can beat you with decision making. She needs to manage her risk reward strategies when she’s passing the ball. She plays heads up, looks to cut in the paint for a pass and make something out of it. She was very active in multiple areas of the game which is great to see an impact wihtout having to have the ball in her hands.
Neal, a 5'7 lefty guard in the 2023 class out of Ferndale, Wash. Her play early in the weekend was well hinged on her hustling ability. She has a strong frame that allows her to penetrate the lane hard and take positioning in the paint. Having a consistent plan, whether its a stop and pop or a dish in the paint is key for her decision-making once she gets in there. Another aspect that was exciting to see was her guard rebounding ability and aggressiveness going after loose balls. That dynamic is essential for her overall impact on both ends. During game play, we saw Neal take perimeter shots with time and space, but developing that confidence further would be good for her because she has a nice shot. Overall, watching her hustle and grittiness to compete all weekend was spot on, so adding more confidence to her offensive game will put her on a steeper upward trajectory going into next year.
