Portland’s vintage flamethrower with a record-setting shot diet
Wassom’s calling card is pure perimeter heat: in the 2005-06 season, she set a Portland single-game record with seven three-pointers and scored a career-high 21 points, showing the kind of spacing gravity that can warp a defense. She also flashed versatility as a 5-11 guard/forward who could handle, rebound, and even block shots, making her more than just a catch-and-shoot specialist. The big why-care factor: players who can stretch the floor, create matchup problems, and bring edge are coach magnets—especially when they can pop off for a huge night without needing the offense built around them.
