Freshman Guard Gianna Smith Brings Size, Versatility, and a Scoring Spark to Colorado State
Gianna Smith is a Colorado State freshman guard who has already seen action in 16 games in 2025-26 and flashed a season high of five points, including a made three against South Dakota Mines.[6] At 5'11", she brings useful guard size and combo-guard versatility, and her high-school résumé points to real shot-making upside: as a senior at Arapahoe, she averaged 24.3 points, 2.7 assists, 4.9 rebounds, and 2.9 steals per game.[3][8] She looks like a developmental fit for a team that values perimeter scoring, activity, and future two-way potential rather than instant volume production.[1][6]
