Defensive-impact forward who brings rebounding, rim protection, and hustle
Shalyn Martin stood out for UT Arlington as a high-motor frontcourt player whose value went well beyond scoring: in her notable season, she posted 13.3 points and 6.7 rebounds per game while also producing 67 steals and 46 blocks, a rare two-way defensive profile for a forward.[1] Earlier UT Arlington coverage also showed her as a team leader in blocks and a steady scorer/rebounder, including games with double-digit boards, which points to a player who can change possession battles and anchor a defense.[3][2] If your team wants toughness, activity, and disruptive defense, she fits that mold well.[1][3]
