Leïla Lacan established herself as one of the premier young guards in Europe playing in the Ligue Féminine de Basketball (LFB). She averaged 13.2 points and 2.1 steals per game, helping Landes to an LFB championship title.
Drafted in the 2024 WNBA Draft, Lacan is a high-energy, two-way guard. A defensive pest, she utilizes her length and quickness to disrupt passing lanes and apply constant pressure on opposing ball-handlers. Offensively, she is a versatile combo guard who can create her own shot and facilitate for others, excelling in transition and using a quick first step to get to the rim.
