a steady, defense-leaning guard who brings experience and toughness
Ashley Panem is a veteran guard whose value comes from versatility, defensive activity, and a proven track record as a scorer at previous stops; in the 2023-24 season at Northern Colorado, she averaged 1.8 points in 10.8 minutes, and earlier in her career she showed stronger all-around production, including 17.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 2.4 steals per game as a junior in high school, plus 9.0 points and 3.1 rebounds per game at Western Nebraska.[7][2][1] She looks like a fit for teams that want an experienced, competitive guard who can contribute without needing high usage, though her current offensive output suggests she is more of a role player than a primary creator.[3][6][7]
