From the article:
This 6'11" 16 year old Jamaican girl "was the highest-scoring "netball" player in her country -- a sport similar to basketball."
"That on-court prowess earned her a scholarship to Rutgers Prep in Somerset, and for the last two months she's been hitting the hardwood to learn the rules of basketball."

Glad to be Mexican

Jeez, if she can move well and has decent court sense she'll be deadly! I find netballers who move across are usually a bit wooden (probably from all that stopping!) and need work on lateral movement.
This gal would be worth the trouble, 6'11" females are a rarity.

Just a minor point. I'm pretty sure 208cm is 6"10"
