Message: [QUOTE="PAC-12HoopFan, post: 3278108, member: 8997"] Canada's Plouffe sisters at 6'3" are mobile, sturdy/strong, clever with their footwork inside the paint, can handle the ball, and are solid shooters from distance. Williams and Onyenwere are athletic and skilled, but give up length and experience to Canada in the 3x3 game in which fouls are called only sporadically within the paint. Who might the US deploy in the future to shut down the Plouffe sisters in 3x3 action at international tournaments? Rhyne Howard (Kentucky) is 6'2", but may not have the girth to combat the Plouffes in the paint. Ruthie Hebard (Oregon) is 6'4", but may not be mobile and fit enough to chase the Plouffes around the court for an entire game. Does the US have a 6'3"+ female player in its college ranks who can combat what Canada's Plouffes have to offer in the world of 3x3? There are reasons why Canada has won more than its share of these 3x3 circuit events. [/QUOTE]
