Uniyah Franklin brings length, defense, and steady frontcourt versatility to Winthrop
Uniyah Franklin, a 6-foot-2 junior forward for Winthrop in the 2025-26 season, profiles as a defensive, rebounding-minded contributor who can fill gaps without needing the offense run through her. She has NCAA experience from Louisiana Lafayette, where she played in 38 games over two seasons and posted 21 blocks and 19 steals, and Winthrop’s own notes highlight her crossing 100 career rebounds. Her game fits teams that want energy, size, and reliability more than flashy scoring—think hustle, rim presence, and glue-piece value.
