Mercer guard Elena Cabello brings versatile, low-mistake depth with defensive upside
Cabello is a useful rotation guard whose value comes from versatility, effort, and steady two-way flashes rather than heavy volume scoring. In 2024-25 at Eastern Michigan, she played 29 games with 20 starts, averaged 3.5 points, 2.7 rebounds, 17 assists, 14 steals, and seven blocks in 17.4 minutes, and had a season-best 13 points plus a 10-rebound game. Mercer should like her as a connector who can rebound, defend, and hit occasional threes; the main question is whether her offensive production can scale up, especially after an injury-affected 2023-24 season.
