" Hughes announced his retirement as coach of the San Antonio Stars before the 2016 WNBA season.

But there were moments during the season when he reconsidered his decision, mostly based on one player — former UConn guard Moriah Jefferson, who averaged 13.9 points and 4.2 points as a rookie with San Antonio.

"She gave me reasons to rethink that because she was that much fun," said Hughes, who worked as a color commentator on the Syracuse-UConn broadcast for ESPN2 Monday night. "I was just amazed by her. Not only the player, the talent, but the way she adapted so quickly. The conversations I would have with her reminded me of a much older player."

How many times have we heard it. UConn players come out READY!
 
MoJeff was really entertaining when the Stars played here in Chicago. Hopefully, McBride can stay healthy and with one more good running mate in acquired in this year's draft, they could have a fun little team going.
