These factors are regularized RAPM-style estimates of how the player moves her team's performance relative to league baseline when she's on the floor. ORAPM/DRAPM summarize overall offensive and defensive impact per 100 possessions; the sub-rows approximate impact on effective shooting, turnover margin, rebounding, and free-throw pressure, then unpack where shots come from (profile/deterrence) and how they are finished or contested (making/defense). The offensive components incorporate priors to stabilize estimates, while the defensive components are currently fit without priors.
After solidifying herself as a Duke legend by burying a three at the buzzer to beat LSU in the Sweet 16 this March Madness, Ashlon Jackson enters the WNBA draft as a classic microwave scorer. Standing at 6'0", she possesses good size for a pro guard, but her real value lies in her ability to shift the momentum of a high-stakes game in just a few minutes.
Jackson is the definition of a momentum-dependent player. When she finds her rhythm, she has a tendency to make multiple shots in a row, sometimes even pulling up from well beyond the arc or hitting difficult looks off movement.
On the flip side, Jackson's game is defined by a high level of variance. Because she relies so heavily on the perimeter jumper, she will have games where she simply cannot buy a bucket, leading to a lower overall field goal percentage and dry spells from deep. Without elite explosive burst to get to the rim for easy finishes, she is often at the mercy of her outside shot to remain an efficient scoring threat.

Yarden Garzon is a jumbo connector wing whose game is defined by elite floor spacing and high-level basketball IQ. A standout at both Indiana and Maryland, Garzon plays a methodical and down-to-earth brand of basketball.
Garzon's primary weapon is her three-point shot. Across four collegiate seasons she has maintained an impressive clip of almost 41% from deep, including a historic freshman season where she shot nearly 46%.
While her volume and efficiency saw a slight dip in her senior year, she remains a top-tier catch-and-shoot threat with professional range and a quick release that allows her to shoot over smaller defenders.
