About Payton

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

As a point guard, I like to get the ball up the floor as quickly as possible. I want to utilize my bigs, drive, and kick out to my shooters. As a shooting guard, I have a quick release to hit shots off the pass or use my speed to hit shots in the lane.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I am a team player first and foremost. I'm always looking at how to put my teammates in the best situation for success. I feel that I have a positive outlook on and off the court.

What type of college are you looking for?

I'm looking for a college that will support me best as a student-athlete. I'm looking for a staff that will support me academically, athletically, and mentally.

Payton is a bundle of energy that impacts the game on both ends of the court. She is a good ball handler as well as a good passer. On defense, she has good instincts and gets steals by using her high basketball IQ.

As in true lefty form, Payton can shoot it from deep. She didn’t shoot it very much but when she did you saw the technique and results. Looks like Basha has another zone-buster in Payton.
