Laeticia Amihere

Laeticia Amihere is a Canadian basketball player who, at the age of 15, became the first Canadian woman to dunk during a competitive game at the Boo Williams invitational tournament in April 2017. According to the ESPN website, she is currently ranked fourth nationally and second at her position in the 2019 class. Moreover, ESPN evaluations from spring recruiting events state that she is "explosively athletic", can anticipate passing lanes with "pogo-stick hops" and is able to defend "any position on the floor". Laeticia Amihere is all set to become the face of the Canadian women's senior basketball program, which is ranked fifth in the world. Since the video of her dunk went viral, she has received messages from former NBA greats like Shaquille O'Neal and Canadian hip-hop artist Drake, with the latter also following her on Instagram. A proud Canadian at heart, one of her longtime goals is to win a medal for Canada in the Olympics. She also wants to make her mark in the United States by winning the Final Four and a national championship.
