Defensive-minded Wolverine forward who could quietly swing a game
In her Michigan career, Melinda Queen was a 6-1 forward best known for defense, toughness, and steady two-way minutes rather than flashy scoring; she earned Michigan’s Best Defensive Player Award in 2009 and started all 30 games that season. Her 2008-09 line was 6.9 points per game with career-best rebounding and all-around production for the Wolverines, which suggests a dependable glue player who can battle inside, handle contact, and do the unglamorous stuff coaches love. If your team needs intensity, physicality, and a low-drama competitor, she fits.
