Are you using Windows 10 as the host OS for VMware Player?  Do all
other USB devices show up in the VMware list?

I have never used VMware Player, but looking online for others with
this problem, I see recommendations to upgrade to the latest version
of VMware Player, are you using the latest version?

Also, this forum post:
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_devices/win-10-installed-in-vmware-doesnt-detect-usb/ff0b08dc-3192-44c6-97e5-e4a8a0ba1110?auth=1
suggests that changing the USB controller in VMware to be USB 2.0 may
help.  Could you try that?

Thanks,
