Belmont’s bruising, old-school interior piece
Shai Wilkins is listed as a Belmont women’s basketball center in historical roster and stats pages, but the available records show her playing career was in the 2010-11 and 2011-12 seasons rather than the current 2026-27 roster. In those seasons, she was a steady frontcourt option who gave Belmont size, physicality, and a reliable low-usage presence around the rim, which is the kind of glue role coaches love. If you’re evaluating fit, think “rebounding, defense, and toughness” over high-volume scoring; there isn’t enough current public data here to project a modern impact or ranking.
