Message: [QUOTE="Reypl21, post: 3964465, member: 5169"] I'm an ND lover, and am missing the post play of Shepard and Turner. So I've been following them closely in the W. Shepard tore her ACL rookie season, and missed 2020. Napheesa and her were starting to create really amazing chemistry, that I'm sure will continue this year. Reeve loves her on the Lynx, and in press conferences so far she has been impressed with her. I think Shepard landed on the ideal team for her skillset. Turner has played both years, and in her second year she was on the 1st team All-Defensive team. She stepped it up in the wobble when Griner left. Turner also landed on a team where she is utilized when. She can run pick and rolls with DT and Skylar, and now she'll have BG in the post to work off of. She doesnt need to worry about scoring, just being an elite defender. Which she has shown she already is. But yeah, they were both elite players in college. Turner was 2nd AA in her sophomore and junior year, and Shepard 3rd team her senior year (this is from memory, AP teams I believe). Shepard is the main reason why ND won the title. She played extremely well in the title game against McCowan. [/QUOTE]
