It doesn’t matter. Pull-up jump shot, free throws. Doesn’t matter. No matter where she is, no matter what shot, no matter what the circumstances, it’s always in the same spot and it’s the same release every time. And it’s quick.” Everything. Her setup. It’s just, like Steph Curry said, it’s just classic, it’s just perfect.” Curry has seen Fudd play at his SC30 Select Camp. “She can be going full speed, and stop on a dime and have, like, a feathery release,” Curry told espnW last year. “I think she has more of a textbook jumper than anyone I’ve seen. Maybe Klay Thompson and Azzi Fudd. … You go Ray Allen, Klay Thompson, and Azzi Fudd, textbook. You would teach somebody how to shoot with their form.” She’s going to play long stretches,” Auriemma said. “She’s a good defender. She’s a good ball handler. She’s better than she looked (Sunday), trying to get to the basket. So she’s not the Dan Hurley, or in this case the DS. She’s not the designated shooter where she’s just going to stand in one spot. [B]She’s a basketball player, flat out. That’s what is special about her, she’s not just one-dimensional.”[/B] [/QUOTE]
