Kseniia Kozlova (PF 6-1, 2001) from Russia. After U16 FIBA Europe Udine 2016

She is a bit undersize PF but possesses interesting leap ability, quite good strength and a wide frame at this stage. She displays remarkable mobility and great footwork, although she struggles moving her feet on the D end guarding face-off plays. She looks like as Raisa Musina a bit; both physically and the way how she plays. She shows a good knowledge for the game and displays a promising dribbling skill set for a PF. The Russian has a quite good shooting range and her shooting skills are really good, specially her shot-of-the-dribbling. She completes her O package with reliable mid-hook shot from her right hand (after sealing a spot at the block-post), and is able to put hard ball-screens with a quick enough rolling release. As we told, her lateral mobility on D end, doesn’t allows her to be a great defender yet, but her attitude inside the zone and knowledge, make her a god rebounder and a threat from the weak side.
