You may want to get familiar with Jaden Newman. At just 10 years old, Jaden is currently in sixth grade and already playing for the varsity basketball team at Downey Christian School in Orlando, Fla. If you're not impressed yet, we should also let you know that Newman dropped 57 points earlier this week in her team's season opener. 57 points

As you can tell, Jaden has a little Stephen Curry to her game, breaking down defenders off the dribble and finishing with the jumper. Not a bad player to emulate

Usually, we salute the athletes who are far more superior than their peers, but Jaden is operating at a completely different level. She's far younger than her competition and clearly, making it look incredibly easy. Respect.
