Ariel Phelps brings rim protection and rebounding punch to Hampton
Ariel Phelps is a physical forward whose calling card is interior toughness: in Hampton’s 2011-12 season, she averaged 4.6 points and 5.9 rebounds per game, with multiple double-figure rebounding nights and a career-high four blocks in one game. She also showed efficiency around the basket, shooting .491 from the field that season. What makes her interesting beyond the box score is the glue-player profile—rebounding, shot blocking, and steady low-usage production—which can fit a team that needs size, defensive activity, and a dependable paint presence.
