Yasmeen Thompson brings Houston a steady, physical anchor in the paint
In Houston’s recent season, Yasmeen Thompson stood out as one of the Cougars’ most reliable frontcourt pieces, starting all 31 games and averaging 7.2 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 0.7 blocks in just under 30 minutes a night. Her value goes beyond the box score: she led the team in rebounding, offensive boards, and free-throw attempts, which is a strong sign of active hands, motor, and paint pressure. If you want a center who battles, finishes efficiently, and does the dirty work without needing the spotlight, Thompson looks like a smart fit.
