- A dynamic wing forward that is a mismatch on the perimeter. Ashton is an elite three-level scorer with a smooth jumper out to the three-point line. She has a great basketball IQ, elite court vision, and is an unselfish player that gets hers without forcing things. She impacts the game on both ends and at her size can play with the rock in her hands, off-ball, or in the paint.
