Siskowski is an espeically craft finisher around the rim due to her high usage of the pivot foot. The incoming junior guard sought out contact as a driver, posting high-level footwork from step throughs and spin moves coming off the pivot foot. Siskowski showed she could get shots to fall when going through contact, contributing the majority of those shots with the right hand. Coming off drives, the guard is capable hitting cutters or open teammates on the weak side, typically through right hand passes. On the defensive end, the guard looks to make the most of her small frame compared to forwards. She played a crucial role taking charges against bigger opponents and going up to block shots versus guards. Siskowski is currently unranked, although she will have a key season ahead of her.
