2020 first overall pick Grant Ament led the PLL in assists (22) and points (35) on his way to winning the 2021 Eamon McEneaney Attackman of the Year Award.
Ament regularly won his one-on-one matchups -- especially after drawing switches. He improved his shooting off the dodge (up to 38.2% from 21.1% as a rookie), shaking defenders with a violent split dodge.

Ament led the PLL with 61 assist opportunities (i.e. a pass that leads directly to a shot). He hit Marcus Holman for singles and Will Manny on skips. With the way he drops his stick to alter angles, every pass on the field is available to him.
