Chiso Okafor brings toughness, rebound juice, and international polish to Miami
Okafor is a 6-1 forward whose game is built on physicality, hustle, and versatility: Miami’s staff praised her for going hard after rebounds and loose balls, stretching defenses with mid-range and three-point range, and bringing toughness in the paint[1][2]. In the 2021-22 season, she appeared in 7 games before missing the final 27 games due to injury, and Miami’s notes described her as “steady” with a quiet-impact profile that can show up in the box score late[1][3]. She also arrived with proven international experience, including 11.6 points and 7.3 rebounds per game at the 2019 FIBA U16 Women’s European Championship[1][2].
