veteran Buffalo forward with size, touch, and a proven two-way edge
Badinici brings a rare combination of length and experience to Buffalo, listed at 6-foot-3 and historically known as a forward who can stretch the floor a bit while rebounding and defending with discipline. Her career numbers at Buffalo show a steady role player profile—3.3 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 32.1% from three across 43 games—so the appeal is less raw box-score pop and more positional flexibility, maturity, and dependable basketball IQ. If a team wants a steady, team-first frontcourt piece rather than a volume scorer, she’s the kind of fit that quietly makes lineups work.
