Ella Collier brings veteran shot-making and NAIA star power to Purdue
In the 2024-25 season, Ella Collier was a 6-foot fifth-year Purdue guard whose game translated through spacing, poise, and production: she shot 53% from the field, 45% from three, and 94% at the line across her collegiate career, after arriving as a two-time NAIA National Player of the Year and four-time All-American[1][3]. She’s the kind of experienced, low-drama veteran who can stretch defenses, steady an offense, and raise a team’s competitive edge—especially valuable for a contender that needs reliable shot-making and leadership[1][3][4].
