Naz Hillmon broke the Athletes Unlimited single-game leaderboard points record with 834 points. The scoring system for Athletes Unlimited is different from traditional scoring systems.

Hillmon played college basketball at Michigan and was its first All-American in its women’s basketball program. She was the first Michigan basketball player – male or female – in school history to score 2,000 points and grab 1,000 rebounds. Hillmon recorded a double-double in the team’s four games in the 2022 NCAA Tournament, finishing her career with 52 total.
She was drafted 15th overall by the Atlanta Dream in the 2022 WNBA draft and started in 12 of 24 games played in her first season. Before the start of the 2023 WNBA season, Hillmon joined Athletes Unlimited for its second season of play and she is turning heads.
