Maria Smear brings Yale a true spacer with shot-making touch
In the 2002-03 season, Yale guard Maria Smear’s value was built on efficiency and floor spacing: she averaged 4.3 points per game while shooting 39% from three and 83% at the free-throw line, marks that point to a reliable, low-drama role player who can punish help defense. Earlier Yale coverage also described her as a strong outside shooter and a good penetrator, with a reputation for stepping up in big moments. She looks like a fit for teams that want a smart, steady guard who stretches the defense and competes without needing the ball constantly.
