Illinois’ high-usage, high-efficiency scoring guard
Bryant was a first-rate engine for Illinois in the 2024-25 season, averaging 14.9 points, 3.9 assists, and 3.5 rebounds while shooting 39.5% from three and 89.3% at the free-throw line[1][2]. Her differentiator is shot-making under pressure: she posted a 24.8% usage rate with strong offensive impact metrics, and Illinois leaned on her in big moments, including a Big Ten Player of the Week stretch where she averaged 20.3 points and 55.6% from deep[13][12]. At 5-foot-6, she wins with pace, toughness, and craft rather than size[8].
