-Somebody mentioned it before but it does look like UConn gives up the ball on the opening tip. Never noticed before.
- Even though Hession shot lights out with 6 threes, it was still a solid defensive performance especially after the first quarter.
-Cheli got the minutes that Ice would get and played well. Nice to see her hit a three.
-Chen broke out her scoring slump. Not sure I get the discussion about whether she should start. Both Chen and KK are having very good seasons in their current role.
-Strong had another “head shaking” moment in the first half when she flipped a perfect pass to Cheli while falling down. Few have the instincts to make that play.
-Azzi seamlessly has picked up the scoring slack with Paige’s absence. Plus, her shooting sometimes overshadows how good of a defender she is. It is why, if she stays healthy will be a great pro.
-I am thrilled that Q got time in front of home fans. Especially after her struggles Wednesday. Wish one of her shots would have fallen.
-I rarely mention Shade which, I am like many, who take for granted how consistently well she plays.
-A little slow start but overall a solid performance.
