Bennett is a player that you build a team around. I know I have said that before, but she changes the dynamics of the game. Her ability to rebound and score through contact is one of her biggest attributes. A player not afraid to play defense and attack downhill. Once she gets going it hard to stop her as she brings the energy from start to finish.

She’s a solid guard that moves better than you would assume. She made smart and sometimes surprising drives that ended with contact layups and finishes. She showed her vision as well making sure defenders fully committed before dropping off the pass. She moves much better than you would probably assume.

Bennett has a “feel” on the court. She made defenders look silly more there once with the way she was able to weave through traffic ending oftentimes with passes to wide-open teammates. A lot of agility and a sticky handle. The ball just never got away from her.
