.To me she is more of an Asjha Jones type of player and gives us power underneath big time.
She came to mind for me as well. Asjha averaged 14.0 and 6.6 for the 2001-2002 team and overall had over 1500 career points. Solid pro career in WNBA and for USA.
As good as Asjha was, I think Edwards has a higher upside. Most notably, a better ball handler and shooter. While Edwards has three point range, Asjha was 8 for 25 from three for her senior year and only had 17 threes for her entire UConn career. (Side note - neither Swin Cash nor Tamika Williams made a three during their UConn careers.)
Nevertheless, I would be very happy she contributes as much to the program as Asjha did.
