Alabama State Forward with Untapped Potential and Defensive Grit
Ryin Tillis, a 6'1" junior forward for the Alabama State Hornets women's basketball team, showed flashes of promise in 2023-24 with 29 games played (17 starts), averaging 2.0 points and 0.6 rebounds while logging 12.3 minutes per game, highlighted by a six-point outburst vs. Auburn and seven boards vs. Jackson State[2][3]. Her differentiator is elite shot-blocking (nine career blocks in limited minutes) and rebounding tenacity from high school All-Region days, paired with a business major's discipline and no reported injury history. Care about her for that high-motor intensity and versatility as a hustle player—perfect fit for teams needing affordable, coachable depth with upside in the paint.[2]
