<p class="text-gray-700">Corbin is a dynamic guard who excels at breaking down defenses. She has an array of moves that leaves defenders off balance, creating easy lanes to the basket.

She plays the team game and plays in sync with her teammates. Corbin's speed, defense and her ability to score at all three levels while attacking downhill makes her one of the most versatile guards to follow this season. </p>
