AUBURN, Ala. – Auburn graduate guard Honesty Scott-Grayson was named an honorable mention All-American by the Women's Basketball Coaches' Association, it was announced last week.
 
Scott-Grayson, a native of Brick, N.J., led Auburn in scoring with 17.3 points per game in her final season on the Plains, helping lead the Tigers back to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2019. She scored 20-plus points 10 times during the regular season and averaged 20.4 points per game in SEC play, second-best in the conference.
 
Her final home game put an exclamation mark on the season as she scored a career-high 32 points, a Neville Arena record for an Auburn player, on a senior night victory over Mississippi State.

She finished her career with 1,600 points at Auburn, good for 11th on the all-time scoring list. She also finished in the Auburn career top 10 in 3-pointers made (130 – 10th), free throws made (307 – T-9th) and scoring average (14.4 – 7th). In addition, her 228 assists at Auburn rank 20th in program history.
 
Scott-Grayson was earlier named to the All-SEC First Team, and she was an SEC Player of the Week and USBWA Player of the Week after her 21-point performance in the Tigers' upset win over No. 7 LSU on Jan. 21. She was also selected to last week's Women's College All-Star Game in Cleveland, where she started for Team Miller and scored 14 points in the nationally televised contest.
