    South Carolina commit Jerzy Robinson has been preparing for the 2026 McDonald’s All-American Game, which takes place on Tuesday in Arizona. Robinson is part of a loaded 2026 class and is a top-five national player, according to ESPN.

    SportsCenter NEXT recently uploaded a clip of Robinson working on her game in a gym. In the video, she dribbled her way to the free-throw line before going up to nail a fade-away shot.

    The clip impressed many fans.

    “I can’t wait for next season,” one fan reacted.

    “Very physical team next year,” one fan commented.

    “Big guard will fit perfectly with SC!!!!!” one fan remarked.

    “She play like isaiah briscoe,” another wrote.

    “STRONG,” one fan wrote.

    “Omg she the next one,” one fan added.

    Earlier this month, Robinson dropped a 32-point, 12-rebound performance in the CIF Open Division championship to win the title with Sierra Canyon.

    Jerzy Robinson and Dawn Staley’s Fit Hailed By South Carolina Commit’s High School Coach

    Just two days before Christmas, Jerzy Robinson announced her commitment to Dawn Staley’s Gamecocks. . One month after the news, Staley’s high school coach, Alicia Komaki, hailed the fit between Staley and Robinson.

    “The biggest thing is how competitive Jerzy is and her goals for basketball,” Komaki told The State. “I think Dawn is one of the best people who can help her accomplish those goals, and will bring out the next level of Jerzy Robinson. … I think there’s certain people who can tap into that next gear, that next level of superstars, and I think Dawn will do that really well.”

    Talking about her skills on the floor, Komaki said Robinson can do it all.

    “She can handle the ball, she can score the ball, she rebounds the ball, she plays tremendous defense, and she can score the ball,” Komaki said. “When you’re when you can do all those things, that’s great, but when you’re elite at doing all those things, that’s a whole different conversation, right?”

    Given her massive frame despite being a guard, Komaki gave special mention to her defense, which sometimes goes under the radar. The coach said she can guard all five positions and can be seen as a versatile option on the floor.
