Somfai is slotted in at #8:
"Standing at a long, broad 6-4, Somfai has the coordination of a perimeter player's handle and the strength of a post player inside. She has a nice touch out beyond the three-point line and the court vision to lead the break or create in the half court. Her face-up footwork is superb, and her deceleration and patience around the rim are already ready for the next level. Defensively, she can play in a multitude of systems and guard anyone on the floor. Playing in numerous FIBA competitions with Australia, Somfai has the basketball experience of a savvy veteran.
What can she add to her game?
Somfai must maintain consistency with her elevation on jump shots. She also must adjust her speed -- she occasionally rushes, particularly on perimeter actions."
to me is a monumental assertion of the BIG-TIME potential of Lara SOMFAI.
It suggests that ASGR's claim that Lara is the #2 overall recruit of the 2025 Class is somewhat legit,
and, in a way, implicitly discards her current ESPN 2025 Class #16 overall ranking and
instead replaces it with being ESPN's 2025 Class #4 overall recruit
(after BETTS, DAVIDSON and CHAVEZ, who are #1, #2 and #7 in this list)
Stanford is definitely getting a really SPECIAL player in Lara SOMFAI!
