a sturdy, two-way forward who brings rebounding, rim protection, and efficient offense
In the 2006-07 season, Shannon Clay flashed as a physical, high-motor forward for San Diego State, averaging 6.8 points per game while ranking third on the team in blocks (18) and delivering a 12-point, 12-rebound double-double against Colorado State. The profile that jumps out isn’t just the box score: she was praised as a smooth shooter who could elevate over defenders, help on the glass, and protect the rim, with the added toughness of returning after a stress reaction in her right foot. That mix makes her the kind of frontcourt piece coaches usually trust.
