Reeve mentions “Pheese” early on in this vid. Includes her in the list of “3’s”. At this point, it looks like they’re using her to back up Christmas.
The article seems to imply, without quite saying, that she will be the Lynx starter at small forward. If so, that is a great sign.![]()

We arent allowed to talk about looks but OMG
I know. Damn these kids and their ability to compartmentalize!I know they’re teammates now, but this just feels... wrong.
Jess is one Notre Dame player that I just respect so much I couldn't dislike her. And she and Pheesa were roommates during one of the youth games. So I'm looking forward to seeing them play together.I know they’re teammates now, but this just feels... wrong.
In first pre season game she was 1 for 3 inside the arc and 0 for 2 outside, made two free throws, for 4 points, grabbed 3 boards and made 2 steals cancelled by 2 turnovers in 23 minutes, minutes in top five. Lynx won easily but Delle Donne didn't play. I love her as a player. I worry that her skill set won't be used properly.She shot over 40% from three a couple of years ago, dunno how that translates to had trouble shooting beyond 8 feet. She had trouble from three at the beginning of this year, but was pretty decent toward the end of the year. And her turnaround up to about 15-16 is deadly.

Agreed. It's early. There is just too much talent there for her not to succeed. More so than most rookies her pro coaches will be rewarded by figuring how to adapt her college game to pro game.I share your concerns, but it was six days into training camp.
