Jacksonville State's Rally-Sparking Forward Now Thriving in WNBA
Winnie Kuimi, the 6-3 Jacksonville State forward, powered the Gamecocks in 2020-21 with clutch second-half surges—like her key buckets in a 78-75 OVC thriller loss to Murray State—and double-digit rebounding potential, showcasing her physicality, rebounding tenacity, and scoring versatility as a junior standout. Now with the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2025-26 (14.2 MPG, 112.0 PSA across 4 games per Cleaning the Glass), her high-efficiency wing play and battle-tested intensity make her a reliable, high-upside fit for teams needing a tough, athletic forward who elevates in big moments.
