Ajok Madol is a mystery to me. The numbers she is putting up are impressive. However, she plays high school ball at an unknown small school playing against what I assume would be single A sports.
She made the Canada U18 team and at the same time what is the context for that.
Is Madol going to shock people with how good she is or will be find out that those good numbers don't translate to the Big Ten.
Here is the link to the U19 Canada team. We can all see who they are and what colleges they play for. I'm not feeling motivated enough to go look at all their college stats to see if they are actually playing well in NCAA competition:

And then here is the U18 team from 2022. I assume Madol would end up on this team:

And here is the U17 team from last time that had Madol on the team. She barely played which to me is a caution signal.

On that U17 team was dunking phenom Toby Fournier.
So it does look like Canada is producing some good players.
I'm not motivated to study this further. If anyone wants to do that, I gave some links.
For me I'm a bit suspect about the level of competition and yet if Madol is towards to top of the lists then I think that would be super positive. Is she able to put up good numbers against the best of Canada versus scoring 34 against small high school competition and then being at the bottom of national competition.
Previously video snippets showed her at that Biosteel competition (I may have that name wrong) and she appeared to be about the third best there. That would be a strong positive sign if she appears to be one of the best 1/2 dozen players at U18 competition. I wouldn't be real impressed with players just barely making that Canada team.
Anyway... if anyone else can make sense of it.
Is she going to light it up in the Big Ten? Maybe.
