Francesca Sales Rises Above the Net in the 16U NTDP

Francesca Sales made a strong impression in Monday morning’s NTDP training session, with her physical presence immediately noticeable on the right side. At 6'1", Sales brings length and reach that stand out for a Class of 2030 prospect, creating a consistent advantage above the net. Defensively, she looked increasingly comfortable in right-back, showing improved positioning and range as the session progressed. Offensively, Sales showcased versatility by scoring from multiple areas of the court, taking swings from the middle and the outside in addition to her work on the right pin. That ability to contribute across roles, combined with her size and developing all-around game, highlights her upside within the NTDP pipeline as she continues to grow into her frame and responsibilities.
