Message: [QUOTE="dcheng021, post: 4492175, member: 11152"] With so many Uconn players stepping up and having great seasons so far this year, I feel like Dorka has gone a little under the radar, especially missing a bunch of games early in the season, but she's quietly having herself a spectacular season. In fact, two advanced metrics in winshares/40 minutes and net rating (offensive rating minus defensive rating) have her as our best player. Dorka has the highest winshares/40 minutes at .45 with Edwards second at .4 and Azzi third at .39. Dorka's net rating is a whopping 50.4 with Edwards also second at 40.1 and Aubrey 3rd at 37.7. Dorka is also 3rd in player efficiency rating behind Fudd and Edwards. The advanced metrics also have Dorka as our best defensive player by some margin. Advanced metrics from herhoopsstats: [ATTACH type="full"]82806[/ATTACH] Dorka's production has also been very impressive. She ranks in the top 15 among big east players in every major statistical category. Here are her averages per game and where they rank in the big east: Points: 13.3/15th Rebounds: 11.4/2nd Assists: 3.6/9th Steals: 1.4/10th Blocks: 1.8/2nd Assists/TO Ratio: 2.2/4th Three point shooting is just about the only thing Dorka hasn't done well this year, where she is 3-19 for the year. If you take out the 3 ball attempts, her field goal percentage would be 55% which would rank her 3rd in the big east behind her teammates Edwards and Griffin. Comparing Edwards, who is having a player of the year type of year, to Juhaszs' season averages side by side, Dorka is actually beating Edwards in every category except for points and percentages. [ATTACH type="full"]82808[/ATTACH] No one's really talked about Dorka as a potential all-American this season, but if she stays healthy and continues on her current trajectory, would argue that she should certainly be in the conversation, as well as big east defensive player of the year. She is definitely deserving of more national recognition with the way she's played so far this year. I love Dorka! [/QUOTE]
