One more thought Charlie on Morrow's knees. Up to the point she became a member of the DePaul WBB team, Morrow was under the care of what ever medical provider(s) her parents were able to provide. We don't know if she got the same level and depth of orthopedic care she is getting now or not. I can't speak to that nor will I speculate.
Now that she is an active DePaul scholarship athlete, she is exposed to the some of finest orthopedic doctors and training staff in the country. They are no doubt monitoring her condition and will continue to so until she leaves the program. If she needs any type of medical procedure to correct a problem, she'll get it. As you know, players often have medical procedures done over the summer to correct problems, be they preexisting or acquired during the course of the season (most recently for us Evina Westbrook and Paige Bueckers had preexisting conditions addressed over the summer months).
Unless she has a degenerative condition, I think the medical staff can/will be able to keep her on the floor for 3 more years. Last week, I gave a tip o' the turban to UConn's medical staff for the excellent work they are doing and have done over the years to repair and rehabilitate our girls injuries, and keep them upright and healthy. It's something I'm going to watch the next 3 years.
Morrow is fun to watch. I'll look forward to the UConn/DePaul games just to see her. I expect her to get better and become more aggressive with each passing year. Any doubt she'll be a first round WNBA draft pick? Can you imaging her in 3 years? Bigger, stronger, faster and meaner.
I know she won't be able to play "bully ball" in the paint in the W like she does now, but I have a feeling she'll hold her own and improve the fortunes of whatever team she goes to.
did not do right by her. I was watching the Fiba game she got hurt in during that summer. Tough break. Morrow is highly regarded at DePaul, and has become the face of the program. Doug Bruno is not going to let anything happen to her.
