Message: [QUOTE="Shades, post: 2581695, member: 6101"] You don’t want to judge too much on one game. She’s usually not spectacular but she’s been fairly consistent. She’s only one of three Lady Vols to ever accumulate over 40 career double doubles. I thought she looked great offensively against the likes of 6’7 Teaira McCowan of Mississippi St. Nice face up game. Can shoot from distance. She could use some work defensively. I don’t think she’s hopeless in that regard. Get a good coach to work with her. She seems to conserve energy, probably because Tennessee relies on her for heavy minutes. I think she played 40 last night? In the WNBA, she can expend more energy in shorter bench minutes. My WNBA team picks #12, so if no one clearly better was available at that pick, I wouldn’t be mad if they chose Russell. That would be pretty good value for her. By comparison, I think she’ll be better than Imani Stafford-McGee, who went #10 in a recent draft. [/QUOTE]
