A Techsters wrecking ball who lives on the glass
In the 2009-10 season, Shanavia Dowdell was a true two-way force for Louisiana Tech, averaging 18.0 points, 12.4 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks while shooting 52.7% from the field. She ranked among the nation’s best rebounders and finished with 22 double-doubles, which is a huge tell: she didn’t just score, she controlled games. The fit is obvious for any team needing a physical, high-motor forward who can punish the paint, protect the rim, and bring veteran edge.
