The Down Low
On the court, Gabby is known as the "Swiss Army Knife" because she can do it all, playing any position 1-4. For the past two years, Coach Wade has played her as a backup point guard (in addition to her other duties), and when she does, fans affectionately call her "Point Gabby." Because of her many talents and athleticism, Gabby is a star that many feel still has even higher to go.
Off the court, Gabby is a delight, and there are so many things to highlight that the only way to cover even part of them is in bullet points:
- She's obsessed with BTS and is slowly spreading the K-pop love among her teammates.
- Probably has the best draft fashion of all time.
- She has the sweetest relationship with her cat Halle Berry, which reminds me of my first cat who moved all across the country with me in my 20s.
- Known weeb.
- I've literally bought two different shirts because I saw her wear them and they looked cool.
- She once did a Cheetos photoshoot.
- Queen of TikTok
