Alliya Butts was Temple’s two-way engine: scoring punch, elite steals, and deep-range danger
Alliya Butts made her mark at Temple as a disruptive, high-motor guard with rare program-level impact: she finished with 1,936 points, 420 assists, 292 threes, and 280 steals, and still holds Temple’s career records for threes and steals. In the 2018-19 season, she averaged 15.2 points, 4.8 assists, and 2.0 steals per game, leading the Owls in assists and steals while ranking second in scoring. Why care? She’s the kind of guard who changes pace, creates offense, and brings edge—useful for teams that want toughness, shot-making, and on-ball pressure.
