She has great range stretching out comfortably beyond the arc. She can score off the bounce via pull up going to either hand. She has a seasoned finishing package with either hand around the rim. And when attacking the rim she has a body that is already suited for the next level that can finish through contact and then accurately convert at the free throw line.
Giana is a big, strong guard. She is a multi-sport athlete with good footwork, superb body control and deceptively quick hands She sports a seasoned handle, and an aggressive approach on both ends of the floor. She works incredibly hard at her craft and it shows to be paying dividends by the player that she has become. She is not afraid of work, nor is she afraid to be challenged, and because of that she will only continue to grow as a player in all facets.
