Naz Hillmon just finished up her senior season as a Wolverine for the University of Michigan, and she's been stacking records and accolades since her freshman season–most notably being the first basketball player in Michigan history to reach 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds. She is also a three-time All-Big Ten first team, 2021 Big Ten Player of the Year, and is a three-time gold medalist for Team USA. On top of all of these achievements, she has a unique accolade as well: Hillmon is Michigan's all-time leading scorer in a single game with 50 points.

There is no doubt her dominance will continue on a professional level as she was drafted 15th overall in the 2022 WNBA Draft. The communications and media major has proven her worth on the court and will, no doubt, be successful in whatever she tackles in the future.
