Whoever snapped that picture deserves accolades - Gabby looks absolutely effortless, and she's practically touching the rim. She's a sensational athlete who has turned into a sensational basketball player. Great picture - thanks for sharing!!

Given where it was shot from, I'll bet it was a professional running a high speed frame series as she went up.

was that off a backdoor cut... she's too open for that easy lay-in, did she make it?

This is much easier for Gabby to leap upward then leaping upward & backward as in the High jump !

I seem to recall Geno joking that he would have trouble slipping a dollar bill under
Stef Dolson's shoes when she jumped.

You could slip all the phone books from the 5 boroughs of NYC under Gabby's feet
and still have room left over.

I see a lot of players who elevate close to the rim but then the ball caroms off the glass and doesn't touch the rim or the net. Williams reaches those high places under control. I haven't seen anything that graceful since Maya's finger rolls.
