Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 3997745, member: 5823"] :eek: Our (UCONN) Stewie? Jewel might have played more minutes but she didn't player better than Neka who was also on that 2018 World Cup team. In 2018 Arike was the darling of college basketball complete with appearances on Helen and Dancing with the Stars and she was also receiving praises from Kobe. It might have had something to do with Arike hitting those two buzzer beaters to secure ND a championship-something that Jewel had failed to do in 3 FF appearances. If you want to use the the Janet Jackson argument aka "what have you done for me lately": Arike lead WNBA in scoring last season Jewel was 14th. This WNBA season Arike is 5th & Jewel is 9th. Don't get me wrong, a strong performance on 2018 World cup team should definitely give you great consideration for 2021 Olympic team. I just don't think Jewel performance was strong enough to be consider a "lock" for selection and she not on Stewie's level. [/QUOTE]
