Hassell is in the conversation for the top prospect in the 27’ class. She has the whole package at 6’4. Her patience and footwork in the low post textbook. She can finish over either shoulder with either hand. She pursues the ball on the offensive glass. From the perimeter she can shoot the 3 ball or attack the opposing posts off the dribble. The definition of a mismatch nightmare. Defensively she can alter shots and switch out and guard in space well for her age and size. The daughter of former NBA player Trenton Hassell. The sky is the limit for Lauren. Every power 5 should have offered already.
