Quimby’s value is in steady, two-way guard depth for Wake Forest
Makaela Quimby is a 5-9 sophomore guard for Wake Forest who brings energy, length, and a defensive-minded profile more than flashy box-score volume in the 2024-25 season. She appeared in 3 games, averaging 6.0 minutes and 1.3 points per game, with her season-best outing coming in the opener against Queens, when she posted 4 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 steal in 16 minutes. Wake Forest originally cited her high-school pedigree, including Blue Star top-30 mention and strong steal/assist production, as a sign she can fit a system that values pressure, poise, and connective play.
