Gabby with a monster block! ! !

brings me back to her raw freshman days when she was still known as an Olympic-trial high jumper.

Gabby Williams earned 2 All American honors at UConn - by showing up against the top teams on national TV - including big plays like that.

Gabby was the jack of all trades at UConn.

You know I like that!! Gabulous remains one of my all time favorites. I’m extremely pleased to see her having a stellar professional career. Expect to see many more “SportsCenter top plays” like this in the coming weeks from Gabby. She appears not to have lost any of her hops or heart.

I’m hoping our two incoming freshmen Isuneh (Ice) Brady and Ayanna Patterson follow in Gabby’s footsteps. No magic tricks please, and when the ball comes your way, make a play.

I love watching Gabby play!

 

[f1f1ferrari]

She's got some serious ups!

Gabby Williams is the reason I watch all games at home with a box score open on the tablet/laptop. So much fun to watch her because she impacts the game in so many ways.

 

[Geesworld]

In my opinion Gabby is top 3 all time athletic player to play at UCONN. She's my favorite intangible player to play at UCONN.

Gabby’s block immediately reminded me of a play Lebron James made several years ago, chasing down a breakaway from behind and pinning a shot against the backboard. She is one remarkable athlete.

There's something about Gabby.

Some players improve AFTER they leave college. Gabby is one of these. Examples of some others: A'ja Wilson (South Carolina), Brionna Jones (Maryland) Kahleah Copper (Rutgers) Azura Stevens (UConn), Allisha Gray (South Carolina), Alysha Clark (Middle Tennessee St), Jonquel Jones (George Washington) Betnijah Laney (Rutgers). etc...........and a few more that I have not mentioned. Gabby's handle is much better , her confidence has increase and the puppy was was at UConn has grown into a full grown junk yard Dogg. I mean that in a good and respectable way. That's why Seattle traded for her. They see what she has grown into, and they want her on THEIR team!!!

Great block for sure. What's also impressive is the way she turned on the afterburners to get in position to make that play. Great hops, great speed.

I am just curious, which players are in your top 3. I have Gabby first and Maya is up there.

People forget one of the greatest Uconn plays. Rutgers player steals ball at mid-court from Moriah. Everyone thinks she has a breakaway layup.
But Stewie coming out of nowhere, starting on the baseline swats the ball into the stands.

Yes, she was fun to watch in a UCONN uniform. She did not originally come to mind.

People forget about Stewie because she makes hard plays look easy. The NCAA against Mississippi St 3 blocks in the same possession, her last year, Uconn wins by 60. The next year loses on a last second shot.

Right play. Wrong opponent. Stewie’s 3 blocks in 6 seconds took place in an NCAA 1st round game vs Duquesne. Later on, in the Sweet 16 “Piranhas on a roast game” vs MSSt, UConn won by 60.

Greatest player thread and no mention of the G.O.A.T. Diana Taurasi?

The announcer says "with the left hand" and the next clip is with her left hand...the rest right?

We need another athlete like this!!
