Denika Lightbourne brings playmaking and two-way guard upside to FIU
Lightbourne profiles as a pass-first guard with real international pedigree, ranking among the assist leaders at the 2023 Centrobasket U17 Women’s Championship with 2.2 assists per game while also contributing 8.0 points and 3.0 rebounds per game. That stat line suggests a balanced guard who can facilitate, compete on the glass, and stay involved without needing high volume to impact the game. For FIU, she looks like a fit if you want a disciplined connector who can organize offense, defend with energy, and add steady guard depth.
