Strengths: Able to hit shots from 15 feet and out at a solid clip; more of a scorer than shooter; very physical on the perimeter defensively; solid defensive footwork; likes to penetrate to kick out to open player or score; can stretch the defense with three point shot; excellent free throw shooter; good at drawing fouls; excellent rebounder at the guard position; has consistently carried her team offensively through stretches in games;

Weaknesses: Will need to adjust to being the focal point of the defense with the graduation of former Utes PG Leilani Mitchell; not the best athlete; goes through periods where she commits lots of fouls; has not been the most consistent shooter from the three point line in her career; handle can get out of control at times; out of control at times when going off the bounce, leading to possible offensive fouls;
