From The State, the South Carolina newspaper:
BENCH VS. BENCH
UConn relies on three non-starters – Gabby Williams, Saniya Chong and Kiah Stokes – and the dropoff from starter to sub is substantial. Williams averages about nine points and 17 minutes per game; the fifth starter in terms of scoring, Moriah Jefferson, averages around 11 and 26. USC brings some of its best talent off the bench: center Alaina Coates (third-leading scorer; top rebounder), guard/forward A’ja Wilson (second in scoring and rebounding) and Bianca Cuevas (team-high in points, 21 and 16, in the past two games). Behind them are 3-point specialist Tina Roy, defensive bulldog Olivia Gaines, another 6-foot-4 McDonald’s All-American in Jatarie White and backup point guard Tiffany Davis.
Advantage: South Carolina
Hmm, didn't Gabby lead the team in scoring two games ago and Saniya one of the top scorers in the last game? And that Stokes kid, she's one of the team's top defenders. Irrelevant, you say?
That's right, pay no attention to the bench, they don't do much....
