Azzi Fudd Cover Story feature, sportscenter at noon 2/25 [merged thread]

EW stay or go, that's the question, at least one of them. Answers, not just yet, time and circumstances have to play out and they will, as we are left to see the pieces fall into place. First does E stay or, we may know sooner rather than later. If she is going I think we get an announcement shortly after the season ends making it easier for all us arm chair coaches to put our lineups together. Regardless, When Azzi arrives if she is all she is advertised to be does anyone really believe that she doesn't start from day one. The only back court player immune from the starting discussion is the Pale Ryder. No way she doesn't start, everyone else will have to fight to be on the floor for the season opening tip off.
 
Well if you had read on you would have read about Azzi returning to Steph Curry’s (boys) camp during her rehab, and only being able to participate in the 3-point shooting contest. She was only allowed to do this if she would walk between the shooting stations. She won (again).

Knowing that she was only allowed to walk between shots is not exactly a relief as to her physical abilities. I am like everyone, and want to believe she will be " good as new"...maybe better. But let's be real. Those injuries were horrendous, and she is fortunate to even walk normally, much less play a sport that requires putting immense pressure on knee joints, at the highest level of competition. I am just suggesting that we not all simply, " close our eyes," and pretend nothing happened to this incredible athlete. And believe me, the game announcers will endlessly focus on her injury/surgeries/recovery anytime she appears on the court. So we will find it hard to put out of our minds.

I’m concerned too. These kids have overused their knees for years by the time they get to college - most of them wear the compression sleeves even in high school. I saw Azzi play in a tournament in Phoenix before she got hurt and she was wearing them. Ditto here in this Jan, 2019 video...




The overuse may not have anything to do with the ACL/MCL tears, but I worry about it.

Anyway, all I was saying is after her injury Azzi can still shoot. I mean she can still REALLY, REALLY shoot. How well can she shoot? Better than EVERY other elite male or female player at the Steph Curry camp, that’s how well.
 
Best of luck to the young lady moving forward; scary to have those kind of injuries that young.
 
.-.
But both equal in stardom. Different but complimentary
Maybe in terms of relatively equal powers in the DC family, Supergirl and Wonder Woman

okay...I will accept that...sounds like the best analogy. And, since they will be interchangeably good we don't even have to identify which is which...except for the color of the hair that might give it away. :)
 
Azzi - She's the One - Didnt the same media say this about Paige last year?!? So, who's right?
"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.."
