Does Gabby play point guard?

[Huskie78]

Wherever Gabby goes in the WNBA I will go see her play as often as I can.
Indianapolis and Chicago are pretty close to where I am, so kind of hoping for
one of them.
But for now I will enjoy her playing for the Huskies for approx another season and a half!
Perhaps next year she can alley-oop it to herself for... THE SLAM!!
Shoot the 3... miss it...rebound... SLAM AGAIN!!
Maybe a wee bit of exaggeration, but I don't put anything past her.
So much fun to watch play the game of basketball.

Gabby's play cannot be described as a position, She is unique, the trump card.

I agree. So why, I ask of the other posters, ask her to change positions yet again? If it ain't broke....

Pretty sure I wasn't comparing versatility of the players or perimeter skills... I specifically said high post and low post. Gabby is filling the same rolls that Dolson did in half court sets... hi post/low post. Dolson had 135 assist her senior year... everyone here talked about how the offense ran thru Dolson during her junior and senior year. No one considered her a point guard.

Let me put it another way. Non-point guards in UConns system have accumulated a lot of assist. For example Dolson, had 135 her senior year. A lot of assist in UConn's system doesn't mean you're a point guard.

Agreed. Gabby has a lot of work to do before being close to a true point guard. Her handle and especially her outside shot needs a lot of work. I think Lou at 6'3" and who has a better handle, deadly outside and can pass as good as anyone would be a more intriguing question. Gabby at the 3 would be ideal.

1) Z & Touly
2) She's 5'11". Let her prep realistically for WNBA success, while being a major contributor in a killer lineup in her senior year

Love this starting lineup:
1- Gabby
2- Kia
3- KLS
4-5- Pheesa
4-5- Z

Bench:
1- Crystal Dangerfield
2- Combs
3- MW
4- Touly
5- NB (Kyla if Butler leaves)
