Layla Conley is a depth guard for Rice with shooting upside and academic consistency
Layla Conley is a junior guard for Rice who has seen limited college minutes so far, but she profiles as a low-mistake, perimeter-oriented backcourt option with some scoring touch, including a 6-point outing on 2-of-2 shooting from three in 2025-26 and five points in her first collegiate points in 2023-24. Rice lists her as an AAC All-Academic Team selection in both 2023-24 and 2024-25, and her high school production showed real two-way activity, especially points, assists, and steals. She’s a fit if you want a disciplined, team-first guard with upside rather than an immediate high-usage creator.[6][9][7]
