Regarding Arike and the other guards, Debbie and Kara stressed 2 points during the game:

--The role of the PG is to facilitate and find the wealth of scorers we have.

--Another goal is to not turn the ball over.

Cat is spot-on:  The cuts were not based on the box score or even the scrimmage.  They were based on the player's full resume and 3 days of practice/scrimmage.  Based on the scrimmage, I would have kept Arike and cut Sabrina, but USAB did the reverse.

Players who impressed last night:  Nneka and A'ja, not surprisingly.  I think they make it.  I also agree with Eric on multiple points:  Plum makes the team.  Last July, I would have thought it was impossible, but she ended her first pro season well and played effectively in her second.  I also think a healthy Moriah could make the team.  I would have loved to see Renee in camp.

Regarding the Huskies, I think Tiff could make the team as an elite defender, and Napheesa could be part of the youth movement.  She had 10 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 blocks, and 3 steals last night.  Other than her shooting percentage (5-11), it looked like her typical UConn game.
