Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 2239830, member: 5798"] I'm not at all surprised to see Williams doing well at this level. The one thing I'll always remember about Courtney during her days in South Florida, is that she was all business (she never smiled), and exuded lots of swagger. The first time I saw her smile was during the WNBA draft. I didn't recognize her when I first saw her during that broadcast. She was one of the few players that never seemed to be in awe or fear of UConn, and always had a good game against them. She scored from beyond the arc, in the paint, and from the line. As I remember, she had some hops, and played some defense too. I always thought her skill set would transform seamlessly to the professional level. She just had to find the right team, she did. Phoenix was obviously not a good fit. I followed her the first few weeks after league play began, and wondered why she wasn't getting any playing time. The trade to the Sun was the best thing that could have happened for her, and I'm not surprised she has recaptured the swagger and style of play she had in college. She's comfortable now. [B][I]She knows that she can play at this level, and that she belongs here.[/I][/B] I agree with [B]Trapppa[/B]: "if it ain't broke................." I'm sure they can (if it's best for the team) fit Wally Pipp.....er, Alex Bentley back into the rotation. Coaches don't like to disrupt a chemistry that's working. This one is working. We'll see if Bentley gets her starting spot back. I also acknowledge the take of DishNSwish. For the reasons stated, Williams will probably return to the bench for the tipoff. She's already stated for the record that she likes Connecticut. Connecticut likes her too, and is quickly becoming a fan favorite. As the article mentioned, the Sun [URL='https://twitter.com/ConnecticutSun/status/876911474442162176']has launched a campaign[/URL] on her behalf. She just turned 23 last month (Born - May 11, 1994), I think she'll be with the Sun (and in the league) for awhile. :cool: [/QUOTE]
