2029 Baker Raising Eyebrows Overseas

Kaci Baker caught my attention a few years ago via video. After having great conversations with her dad, who had covered my daughter’s Texas A&M team back in 2011 on their way to a National Championship, I learned more about the talented young lady who had moved to Texas. From the Watch List on a Prep Girls Hoops ranking, her work ethic has catapulted her to one of the top 2029 players I have personally seen in the state

A few weeks ago, her dad also told me she was invited to represent a USA team that was traveling to Italy, so I asked him to keep me posted. Well, he did, and after helping lead her team to a 5-0 record, USA squads combined for a 12-1 record, the lone loss was by one point, and that record includes her USA Blue team beating USA Red

She averaged a double-double in both games against the Italian National Team and was the leading scorer and rebounder against Blue. Back home, the D1 interests are heating up, and when you stand above that magic number of 6’0 and have a solid skillset, as well as a good work ethic, good things will happen and fall into place
