High school hoopers Sanai Green and Taylor Brown give 1-word reviews for college basketball stars Paige Bueckers, JuJu Watkins and more
High school hoopers Sanai Green and Taylor Brown were featured on Overtime Select's Instagram page on Monday, playing an interesting Q&A session with the host. The young pair were asked to describe the top women's college basketball stars in one word, including Paige Bueckers and JuJu Watkins.
Green and Brown, who joined forces at Long Island Lutheran Middle and High School (LuHi) this year, had fun doing the segment. They were quick with their one-word reviews and even shared some laughs during the interview.
UConn Huskies guard Paige Bueckers was the first name asked on the list.
"Shooter," Green said.
USC Trojans guard JuJu Watkins was the next one.
"Bucket," Brown said.
The next player on the list was South Carolina Gamecocks forward Chloe Kitts.
"Lengthy," Green replied.
The interviewer then brought up Notre Dame Fighting Irish guard Olivia Miles.
"Dimer," Brown answered.
Duke Blue Devils forward Toby Fournier was the fifth name asked on the list.
"Dunker," Brown said.
LSU Tigers guard Flau'jae Johnson was the next player to be asked for a one-word review.
"Dog," Brown replied.
The last name in the chat was South Carolina Gamecocks guard MiLaysia Fulwiley.
"Scrappy," Green said.
Taylor Brown has been making waves in her first season with the LuHi Girls' Basketball Team. She's averaging 14.0 points, 7.2 assists, 3.6 steals and 2.2 rebounds, helping LuHi start the season 5-0 and capture the Iolani Classic before the Christmas break.
Sanai Green, on the other hand, suffered an ACL injury in mid-September and will be sidelined until next year. That hasn't stopped college teams from giving her offers, with Duke, USC and Kentucky among 50 schools interested in acquiring Green's services.
Paige Bueckers and JuJu Watkins living up to their one-word descriptions
Paige Bueckers is living up to her "shooter" tag, averaging 20.0 points per contest to lead all UConn scorers this season. She has been efficient on the offensive end for the Huskies, shooting 57.6% from the field and 40.0% from the 3-point area.
JuJu Watkins also has demonstrated that she's a "bucket" for USC, averaging 24.7 points through 11 games. Watkins, who is the nation's third-leading scorer, already has one 40-point game this season. She achieved that feat in the Trojans' 94-52 win over the California Baptist Lancers on Dec. 3.
