Dawn Staley Watches Special K Go Off vs #1 Team in the country

[@sbswtnchoice]

Dude, I never expected myself to be watching high school girls basketball, but both these teams are good!, and the performance by both teams is so action packed! Good passing and ball handling skills on both teams is really noticeable. I love watching Special K draining them 3's!

[@modreeboy7217]

Both teams are loaded with talent. Every single one of those young ladies can ball! I noticed they all were efficient with both hands and better ball handling skills than most. Keep ballin young queens!

[@Qwik11Hoops]

Highest level of girls basketball you will see in early November. This game was a must attend event!

[@one4themoney2fortheshow]

I enjoyed the game, some nice threes made, and good ball movement. No nonsense at all, the ladies conducted themselves with respect. Knowing the atmosphere of high school gym games, reminded of friends, parents, classmates and school spirit. These ladies are still learning the game which made me realize it was also about heart. Great job ladies.

[@LLCoolNay630]

Women’s basketball is so much better than when I was in high school. These girls are balling. Im impressed.

Not only was Dawn Staley watching Special K, but she was scouting Grace Knox (#23, in black) who will be at LSU next season. Special K is part of the 2027 class. Knox is 1/4 of the #1 recruited class for 2025 and had 30 points with 1:47 left on the clock. Special K had 20. Check out Dawn Staley's reaction at the 13:55 mark of this video. That reaction was about Knox.

#23 was killing it. But Special K was a whole other beast. The way she was dishing out those dimes…. Her IQ through the roof

[@Eric-zk2hu]

The white girl on Etiwanda was very good. Special K was ultra quick and polished ball handler, she is a very exciting player to watch. But it will be a big challenge to be first string on a top division I women's team where the girls are very athletic and so much bigger. Both teams played hard all out full speed basketball, very impressive.

K.Smith is a true PG & of course the #1 ranked player for class of 27....Bt, overtime she'll probably drop to Top 20 in the Nation bt she'll still be the #1 PG. Bcuz, by her Senior yr bigger guards gonna cause problems for her if she dnt grow....Bt, everyone didn't mention Grace Knox the #11 ranked player in class of 25 & the #2 PF & #2 Player in California only behind Addie Deal....Knox is a LSU commit & will fit PERFECTLY in that scheme....Even, Aliyahan Morris ranked #25 in Class of 25 & is a Cal commit....Oh yea, Grace Knox can dunk with ease 💯 😮

Listen their is some hooping going on. Special K is going to work and an amazing player. But her teammate #12 I couldn't take my eyes off of her either. She has good ball handling skills and a great midrange and can post up smaller and weaker guards. I also am impressed with the post soft touch around the basket, then can step back and knock down three's. Ontario Christian is a team to watch. They coming to Texas this weekend playing in the Thanksgiving Hoopfest against two powerhouses in Duncanville and Lubbock Monterey with Aliyah Chavez. Should be done great games.
