Bombs Away! A Shooting Guard Breakdown

Let's take a look at the best shooting/combo guards in this year's class... 

Krystal Ellis (Marquette)
Ellis is a main star in the Big East. This slashing, on-the-ball shooting guard can put up major scoring numbers. She can carry a team offensively and has shown on-court leadership abilities. Marquette should be in the contention for an NCAA birth this year and Ellis will help them do just that.

Takia Starks (Texas A&M)
Starks, an undersized, athletic two-guard, has shown can score in the halfcourt and open court. With her relatively quick release on shot, she almost negates being undersized. She's one of the best athletes in one of the nations better conferences. She's just amazing. Deanna Nolan. Think Deanna Nolan.

Shavonte Zellous (Pittsburgh)
Before last season, everyone was talking about Marcedes Walker. Marcedes, Marcedes, Marcedes. Well, now this is Zellous' year. She has quickly shown deftness in the mid-range game (an art that few guards in the last three draft classes have shown). She's another great athlete in this class.

Emily Fox (Minnesota)
Lindsay Whalen who? Just kidding. Minnesota’s current leading scorer has shown the ability to carry a team offensively. Fox is a true leader for a young Golden Gopher team a year ago that made the NCAA Tournament. The Gophers, along with Fox, will only continue to grow and she herself should grow some as well.

Mandy Morales (Montana)
Not many follow the Grizzly Bear athletics in Montana, but this combo has shown the ability to hit the outrange shot with regularity. She may need to bulk up a bit, but this is a real gem in the world of mid major hoops. Look out for her. Leilani did it, and so can Mandy.

 HM: Morgan Warburton (Utah), Sade Logan (Robert Morris), Tenae Davis-Cain (Florida State), Abby Waner (Duke), Amber Bland (NC A&T).
