DeWanna Bonner's Wingspan

Height is also a major advantage for DeWanna Bonner as she possesses a wingspan of 7 feet 4 inches. This incredible reach, coupled with the fact that she is 6 feet 4 inches tall, places her in a position of strength over rivals in several facets that make up basketball.On defense, the advantage of long arms is seen though Bonner is not so energetic in this aspect as she can block shots and hinder the balls from being passed. She can stretch her hands over some relatively small players to block or change shots, fear being experienced among competitors. She also uses her wing span in grabbing rebounds as she can always reach out more than most of the players.On offense, Bonner’s reach is just as helpful. This makes it possible for her to stretch her arm and use her hands to fetch high balls that other players cannot reach. During shooting she has a long arm reach and this assists her to release the ball higher than her defenders. Her wingspan is also valuable in securing the basketball on the offense and getting the ball back by following missed shots to regain possession for her team.
