Alabama’s glass-cleaning, glue-player forward with veteran poise
In her final Alabama season, Nikki Hegstetter stood out as a steady, high-motor forward who led the Tide in rebounds at 6.3 per game and ranked among the SEC’s better rim protectors with 31 blocks and 1.0 blocks per game in 2015-16. She wasn’t a high-usage scorer, but she brought consistency, toughness, and leadership, finishing with 98 career starts and a reputation as a dependable two-way presence. If your team wants a mature rebounder, communicator, and hustle-first frontcourt piece, she’s exactly the kind of player coaches love to have around.
