Scott was a key leader for Ole Miss coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin during the Rebels’ run to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA tournament. The 6-foot-2 combo guard averaged 11.8 points and 3.7 assists per game. She was named to the 2025 All-SEC Second Team. She also won the 2025 Gillom Trophy, which is an annual honor awarded to the top women’s basketball player in Mississippi.
Scott leaves a huge hole for McPhee-McCuin to fill in the transfer portal. Scott played five seasons for the Rebels. She is the fourth player in Ole Miss history to surpass 1,600 career points and 1,000 career rebounds. Scott played in 155 games for Ole Miss, which is a program record.
