I love the way the husky defense performed against the guard oriented lineup of OS. And I know everyone is
" Giddy about Gabby ". However, I also loved the flexibility of Stewie and Morgan. I can see Morgan sliding into KML's old slot , when Natalie comes back, and anchors the center position. Did no one notice how many times the huskies had to physically protect the ball against OS, not really known as a physical team ? Or the way they tangled up Stewie, causing the 4th foul ? Having an enforcer in the middle will keep Stewie and Morgan on the floor, and really allow the floor to open up and the Huskies to display their versatile talents. As the 6th man , Gabby will get tons of minutes, and a great spark off the bench, while Saniya backs up both MoJeff and Kia. In the mean time, Napheesa, KLS, will get plenty of early season experience.
