Kate Cain’s rim-protecting force made Nebraska’s paint a no-fly zone
Kate Cain was a game-changing Nebraska center whose calling card was elite shot-blocking, including the program’s career and single-season block records, while also giving the Huskers efficient scoring and rebounding in the 2020-21 season. In the 2020-21 season, she averaged 9.2 points and 6.6 rebounds per game on 55.2% shooting, with a reputation for disruptive interior defense and high-intensity play. If a team wants a true paint anchor with proven defensive impact, she’s the kind of big who changes game plans and makes opponents think twice about attacking the rim.
