veteran Winthrop guard with real playmaking roots
Banks entered Winthrop as a point guard with a strong prep resume—she was her high school team’s MVP in 2013 and 2014, and as a senior averaged 10 points, 5 assists, and 4 rebounds—so the appeal is obvious: she can organize an offense and bring steady guard play. In her 2014-15 debut season, she logged limited minutes and produced 0.7 points and 0.8 assists per game, and she also dealt with a broken ankle in the 2015-16 window, which adds injury context. If you want a quick, tough-minded distributor with upside as a connector, she fits the mold; if you need a high-volume scorer, that’s not her lane.
