In addition to South Carolina, Alexander’s top 15 includes Tennessee, Southern Cal, Notre Dame, Ohio State, UConn, Cincinnati, Arizona, Iowa, Texas, Illinois, LSU, Georgia, North Carolina, and Virginia Tech.
Alexander was a member of the gold-medal-winning USC U-16 team this past summer. She started all six games and averaged 8.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 2.0 steals while leading the team with 3.5 assists.
Note: Some outlets, including ESPN, spell Alexander’s first name with one “R” and two “Ns,” but USA Basketball and Alexander herself (who mostly goes by “Dee”) spell it as in this story.
