“She can score at all levels and play all five positions on the floor. My biggest takeaway watching Ella play the last four years has been how she is as a teammate. She’s the best player on the floor most nights, and there are many moments where she could be selfish, but she makes her teammates better. She’s as selfless as they come.”
