BY THE NUMBERS
After two years at Angelina College which culminated in National Junior College Player of the Year accolades, Mack transferred to Oklahoma State where she finished her junior season ranked third in the nation in rebounding and sixth in blocked shots. For an encore, the Lufkin, Texas native led all of NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball in blocked shots this year, and 8th in rebounding while being named the Naismith Defensive Player of the Year. Mack has upped her scoring average to 19.8 points per game, and increased her field goal percentage, assists and steals as well.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
“Mack is, for the most part, what her numbers suggest: a physically dominant frontcourt player. That physicality, however, is more that of a player who has long arms and a quick first step rather than a wide frame and overwhelming strength. Though Mack does most of her damage on post-ups, she prefers to finish her moves with short, turnaround jumpers or push shots instead of seeking contact. Her wingspan and release point allow her to rise and shoot over defenders, and she’s got the speed to leave slower frontcourt players in the dust, both running the floor in transition and with quick, deadly spin moves in the post.
Then, of course, there’s the defense. Mack’s foot speed and length allow her to recover and rotate quickly; she boasts one of the highest block rates in the nation (20th), and that’s not because she’s just plain bigger than everyone else. Rather, Mack’s ability to anticipate and disrupt on defense allow Littell to let her roam on that end of the floor, both defending one-on-one at a better-than-adequate level and cleaning things up elsewhere.”
~ Eric Nemchock, SB Nation
“She’s long. She’s athletic. She’s quick off her feet. Mack is just unique with her length and size, and she’s a quick jumper.”
~ The Athletic
“Mack has all of the physical tools to be a fearsome interior presence. But her reaction time and adaptability will really be tested by the pace of the pro game. It’s also interesting to wonder about her offensive fit with different teams. Mack has been a go-to post-up scorer. How much can she affect that side of the ball when her touches go down?”
