Salter can shoot the three, shoot the midrange, and definitely can get to the rim.      [player_tooltip player_id='633532' first='Leila' last='Goll'] could define be an X Factor off the bench. She found her stride in the final week of the playoffs and saw the ball go in the goal a few times. That's all a good shooter needs. Goll was averaging nearly 5 threes per game last summer, so she knows how to put the ball in the basket. She could be an X-Factor coming off the bench. In addition to shooting the rock, she is an aggressive defender who has a nose for the ball. She is capable of impacting the game on the defensive end as well.

She impacts the game off of the stat sheet.     [player_tooltip player_id='515094' first='Dylande' last='Innocent'] is a player who can come off the bench and make an impact.
