Claresa Banks brings veteran guard grit and shot-making pop for Troy
A 5-foot-9 senior guard for Troy in the 2025-26 context, Claresa Banks is the kind of steady backcourt piece coaches love: experienced, physical, and capable of scoring in bunches. Her Troy bio lists her as a senior guard, and her early-career résumé showed real production — including 14.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.4 steals, 2.2 assists, and 1.3 blocks per game at Copiah-Lincoln CC before arriving at Troy. If your team needs a mature, two-way guard with toughness, versatility, and a little edge, she’s a very solid fit.
