The way that Paige girl finds open players is amazing

[@tamrynbauer8640]

paige can score all the points, but the point of basketball is teamwork, and she understands and does that well with her team. she’s such a role model

[@brownbomber88]

Makes it easy when you have such dominate teammates. PC’s starting 5 can’t compare to Hopkins in size nor physically...... easy to pass the ball the 6’0 plus 2 guards

[@halliehargrove4597]

She really passes it to the SIX FOOT post and two guards so not really what I call teamwork. I would describe that as passing to other teammates and giving them chances.

[@tamrynbauer8640]

@@halliehargrove4597 u just defined teamwork. she’s giving them chances to score not for herself. that’s the whole point of teamwork is passing to get a point.

[@azraa9351]

Kenzie does it all tho Paige can too but she’s more of a outside shooter. Kenzie definitely helped her team and passed a lot. She was unselfish and through it all it shows she’s a great player she assisted rebounded shot and defended. She came out for a break a few times and each break was never over a minute. Kenzie ran the court and did her job. A great player is a great player.

[@hannahrichards2522]

This was a great game and is great seeing the matchup between Bueckers and Mackenzie because Mackenzie is more of a scorer where Bueckers can score but I would regard her as more a playmaker. And in these games it’s not just about the star it’s about the rest of the players.

[@serianadiarte9014]

Yea I agree page rather get other people points when she has a lot and the other girl points mostly came off of fast breaks but they’re both really good and played amazing big fan of both of them

[@markaso1294]

Bueckers is a generational talent. Definitely the best player in high school and will immediately make an impact with UConn next season. Her game is translatable to all levels despite not having elite athleticism. Just so skilled and smart and plays hard on both ends, makes winning plays. Was impressed by Mackenzie who's also a great talent- crafty scorer, good shooter and tremendous finisher who can create her own shot and move without the ball. A good ballhandler, passer and defender as well. She is one to keep an eye on for sure.

[@taylorrosepalmore2318]

I agree but I feel like they are both scorers but paige doesnt like scoring a lot she wants her team to get started

[@BizarroLanigirod]

I think Woodson is gunna be an absolute beast as a senior. Also Nnaji

[@handytbutler7380]

see that is the problem with basketball today, people see a person put up alot of points and they think thats the all around player. yes mckenzie outscored beckers but who controlled the team , how many assist did mckenzie have? how many steals how many rebounds etc.... best player is not the leading scorer , the best player is who controls the game.....

i legit only had to watch the first 10 minutes of the game to see that Paige is the best on the court. her vision is crazy, her shot selection is crazy.. in a good way. the other girl, McKenzie, she got a good motor, can score in bunches but Paige is not scoring on FAST BREAK LAYUPS. Paige is really dissecting shit, analyzing the floor + making the right play. her throw ahead passes on the break are more impressive than being the one to catch a cherry pick and lay it in.. McKenzie needs better teammates around her as well, both played A1. #24 in white was the weakest on the floor, just bad energy dawg.

[@lindseywiseley5005]

within minutes I would've had #24 on the bench, no room for that attitude in this caliber of a game. she obviously didn't want to be playing. I think McKenzie shows she deserves to be recognized though. her speed down the court and aggressive/well played defense isn't something to be overlooked. McKenzie with better players around her would be an even bigger force to reckon with than she is now.

[@Realgenelive100]

All Six Degrees I watch the first 10 minutes and seen that McKenzie team is worst Paige team, air balled open shot and taking crazy layups

Hopkins overall has better depth in players than Park Center, which basically only has Mckenzie. Bueckers has support and uses them to control the game both in offense and defense.

Great win by Hopkins, but I feel bad for Adelia Mckenzie. She had to carry her team too all game, and didn't have enough offensive help. Paige can score well but is so generous with her passing. I'd love having her as a teammate.

[@cheyenneraney6451]

The thing I’m seeing about McKenzie is she wants to be the best and she feels like she has to prove herself aggressively while Paige just take the hits and doesn’t react to them and then effortlessly turns it back. You can tel she doesn’t have to try to be good she is just naturally good and doesn’t need to “prove herself” Edit: after seeing them actually be cordial after the game and you can see there is no ill will I feel as though McKenzie isn’t as mean spirited as I originally stated

Shane Fiddle Park Center wasn’t going “ugly” at the end of the game. Are you dumb!? Lmao. At the end of a close game, everybody fouls so you can get possession back off of a free throw.

When she’s the only player , that is consistent, & the rest of the players miss wide open baseline shots, this team is not going nowhere. & when Hopkins put that zone on them, they couldn’t do shit. Especially when Adalia, was missing shots in the 2nd half, they couldn’t do shit. She’s their only threat. I’ll recommend you stop watching basketball. You don’t got basketball knowledge my man.
