Kia is Back!

"Kia had a huge effort tonight. It was amazing what she was able to do, she was a game-changer and she wanted the ball when the game was close and caused a lot of turnovers with her pressure.”

Yes, I see it. If Kia can lead team Canada like this on the world stage, I see absolutely no reason why she can't do it for the next two years for Geno. She's already done it before, and the lights aren't quite as bright at the college level.

The last two years she had to sit in the passenger seat next to the BIG 3. This year, she gets to slide over into the "driver's seat". Kia is having one heck of a summer. She's maturing right before our eyes. Oh yes, I can definitely see it.

It is KNs time to lead Connecticut and she is more than capable to do it. With her surgery she had no choice but to rest for a while and her playing in the Olympics will boost her confidence even higher. The torch was passed to her from Moriah and its her turn to lead and teach the young blood,Crystal Dangerfield!

We all know that Nurse is going to play great defense and hustle all over the court, but the key for her to take the next step is her offensive consistency. She has shown flashes of being a tremendous offensive player at times. If she can consistently play to her ability on the offensive end then she will be an All American.

Let's also keep in mind her best performances generally came against ranked teams as Nurse averaged 12.3 points and shot 56.4 percent from beyond the 3-point arc against ranked opponents.
