a compact, defensive-minded Sam Houston guard with room to grow
In the 2024-25 season, Kelis Grant averaged 2.6 points, 0.8 rebounds, and 0.3 assists in 27 games for Sam Houston, while shooting 34.6% from the field and 31.6% from three[1]. Her appeal is less about volume and more about role-fit: she’s a 5'7" guard who brings backcourt depth, has shown willingness to defend, and has already logged meaningful minutes across multiple seasons[1][2]. If a team wants a steady, low-usage guard who can compete on the perimeter and doesn’t need the offense built around her, Grant is the kind of gritty depth piece coaches tend to like.
