That transition took a while. Luckily, Jana isn't a guard and isn't known for aggressive defensive attempts like Nika.

I'm thinking more of freshman Dolson, who picked up a lot of reach-in fouls and over-the-back fouls, often in the 1st 5 minutes of a game.
It's easier to tone down excessive aggression than trying to inject aggression into a passive player.

I think a lot of Dolson's early fouls were from not moving her feet quickly enough. This left her trying to make up for having been beaten to a spot with reach-ins and reach-overs.

Dolson's game immediately changed when she transformed her body. She was then able to get to her spot and properly defend.
Playing 3x3 in the last FIBA worlds was a showcase for Dolson's completed transformation.

So do you think she plays the 5. Can she play with Ice. Does she provide a spark off the bench.

It's funny. I think with all the injuries the past 3 years have been some of Geno and staff's toughest coaching jobs. However I kinda think this year, if healthy, is a super tough coaching job for him. Cuz I do think the combinations will matter. Like the field does have close or comparable talent, so it truly may be about playing the right players or pushing the right buttons.
