Amari is not thin. ONO was thin. Cameron Brink (Stanford) is thin. Tamari Key (Tennessee) is thin. I agree with Oldude that Andrea Hudy will help her improve her conditioning as well as her strength over the spring and summer. Things can change between now and the second half of the season (January-February) when UConn will play SC. She has plenty of time to add some muscle. Our trainers are adept at putting weight on a player as well as taking it off.Great to hear that DeBerry and Geno are mutually committed to her success. That being said, Amari is a thin, 3-point shooter who has not proven her ability to rebound or guard bigs. While I expect her to play a major role next year, she is not a defender or rebounder I would count on tilting the scale versus Boston.
I doubt if anyone will tilt the scales on Boston. Unless a player comes into D1 WCBB next year that we don't know about, I don't see anyone in D1 NOW that can stop or slow her down. She gets whatever she wants on BOTH ends of the court. She had a streak of 28 consecutive double doubles before it was broken during the tournament. She did it against ALL comers.
