Gant is an athletic guard able to affect the game in several ways. Her quickness gives her a great first step when attacking the lane. This also allows her to be effective at disrupting the game as a defender. She traps the ball and uses her length to make it hard for defenders to throw around or over her. In addition to being an effective slasher, she is proving to be a threat with her jumper from beyond the arc. She can hit the reversal 3-point shot when the defense is slow to close out. Gant’s game is still far from being a finished product. She is growing into the point guard role and is demonstrating that she can keep her eyes up and find open teammates around the court. However, she will need to become confident in her weak hand. Making herself a threat to go left will keep defenders off balance. Also defensively working on staying in a stance with active feet when the ball rotates away from her will be key. She has a high ceiling as a defender that she has not yet realized, because of this undeveloped area.
