Meet WBB’s 2024-25 Newcomers – Arizona State University Athletics

It’s hard to believe, but the start of the 2024-25 women’s basketball season is less than five months away.

Third-year ASU head women’s basketball coach Natasha Adair and her staff will welcome eight new Sun Devils to the team this year. The new cast will join six returners which includes All-Conference standouts Tyi Skinner and Jalyn Brown. See below for bio capsules on each of the new players along with comments from Coach A on what Sun Devil fans can expect to see from each of the first-year Sun Devils in 2024-25.

 

#0 /// Kennedy Basham /// F /// 6-7 /// Jr. /// Phoenix, Ariz.

• Kennedy Basham will be returning home after playing two seasons at the University of Oregon.
• Played in 47 games with 24 starting assignments (all 24 starts came sophomore season).
• Led team with 48 blocks and led or tied for team lead in 13 games, finishing with multiple blocks 15 times.
• Scored a season-high 15 points at Washington (Feb. 23) and followed that up with 14 points at Washington State (Feb. 25) for her first career games in double figures. 

Coach A’s comments: “I’m thrilled to welcome home local PHH star Kennedy “KB” Basham to our Sun Devil family. A hometown favorite and a player with national recognition, Kennedy is no stranger to playing on the biggest stages in NCAA women’s basketball. Kennedy has a pro frame and versatility at 6’7. With her size, range, athleticism and defensive presence, she will be an immediate game changer for us. She’s coming off a season in which she recorded 48 blocks.  KB has NCAA Tournament experience and is a missing piece to our success. She is ready to get to work!”

• Greer will be familiar with many of ASU’s conference opponents as played all three of her seasons in the Big 12: one season at Oklahoma (played 10 games) and two seasons at Kansas State (played 46 contests).
• Played in a career-high 30 contests in her first season playing for Kansas State (2022-23).
• Kansas State made it to the postseason in each of Greer’s two seasons playing for the Wildcats (WNIT in 2023 and NCAA Tournament in 2024).
