Evaluations

August 2020: This was the second time this summer that Stewart has trained with our staff. This time, she flew more than halfway across the country to train with us and suit up for Brandon Clay Select. She made the time count putting on a solid showing in every aspect of the game. Stewart’s emerging ability to stretch defenses with her jumper was impressive. There is a bounce to Stewart’s step that is unexpected but allows her to be a threat on both ends.

June 2020: Stewart is no stranger to our staff. Right now, she excels getting downhill off the bounce looking for a chance to score in the lane. As Stewart develops her pullup and catch to shoot range, look for increased production to come along with it. She’s got a dynamic pace to her play that is hard to come by.

February 2020: Stewart has put an emphasis on her off-hand since we saw her last.  She’s shown on numerous occasions she can put in on the floor with her left hand to push in transition, create an attack angle or set up a jumper.  She also shifted well from distributor and table setter to aggressive creator with the ball when it was needed.  She doesn’t force offense but that doesn’t mean she’s not able to create. Her willingness to flip that switch is the biggest area of growth from a year ago.

September 2019: Stewart proved herself as a consumate point guard in this setting. She is an unselfish floor general who will use the ball screen to set up teammates. She is equally effective in transition where she will pitch ahead to advantage. Stewart also lead by example. She gets on the floor and does all the hustle plays that are necessary to win. The junior guard also hit the spot up 3-pointer, which will be very important as she climbs the ranks of competition at this level and the next. If there is an area that Stewart should look at to improve coming out of this camp, it is the fact that she tends to go to her right hand too often to attack. Balancing her weak hand attack will keep the defense off balance.
