VCU’s Danielle Hammond was a rim-protecting, high-efficiency force in the paint
Hammond stands out as a classic anchor center: in her senior season at VCU, she averaged 11.3 points, 6.1 rebounds, and led the A-10 in field-goal percentage at 63.1%, while setting the school’s single-season blocks record with 76 and earning A-10 Defensive Player of the Year honors.[1] At 6-4, she brought real paint presence, efficient scoring, and game-changing rim protection—traits that translate well for a team needing defense-first size and reliable interior finishing.[1][5]
