Alex is still very new to the game, but her energy can take her as far as she wants to go. Trying something new with the right attitude is such an important step, and Alex has approached this experience in a positive way. That mindset will help her continue to grow.
She is aggressive, pursues the ball with intention, and plays with a smile. Those are great qualities to build from. On the offensive end, the next step is for her to begin finding where she brings the most value. That starts with picking up the ball often and discovering what feels most natural to her first, whether that is shooting, passing, or dribbling.
Right now, her athleticism is ahead of her basketball skills, but that is completely okay. The basketball part will catch up if she keeps working. Watching the game, learning the game, and finding a favorite player to follow and cheer for can all help deepen her understanding and enjoyment of basketball. Most importantly, Alex should continue to enjoy the game, because that joy, along with her energy and effort, gives her a lot to build on moving forward.
