Jana El Alfy is giving UConn real frontcourt punch
The 6-foot-5 UConn center is a high-upside interior presence who combines size, efficient finishing, and rebounding with a game that is still trending up after an injury-shortened path to campus. In 2025-26, she has produced 4.1 points and 4.4 rebounds in about 12 minutes per game, while recent stretch play drew praise for improved scoring efficiency and activity level. Her biggest differentiators are her length, touch around the rim, and ability to impact the glass; the main fit question is health and consistency, but her ceiling as a mobile, physical big makes her a strong roster piece for teams needing interior depth.
