[HuskyNan]

Any thoughts?

PB to AE
PB to CW

 

[Bama fan]

Paige runs smack into three defenders, then squeezes a pass through for an assist.

 

[bluedevil]

I love watching AG sky for rebounds

 

[Dokey]

Anna block, give to Paige, Paige long pass to CW who scores.

This was mine too. I had to wait for the replay to figure out how she squeezed that pass through...

 

[darkstar1]

Great pass, but I don’t think an assist. But a foul called.

 

[Kaizen]

Paige Bueckers grabs a loose ball and dishes ahead to Christyn Williams, who finishes through contact to score.​

 

[UcMiami]

The Evina to Edwards bullet and basket.

 

[Woof 101]

The Evina to Edwards bullet and basket.

I can appreciate all the above but that one stood out to me also. I did not call it a bullet but a laser with a heck of a reception target.

Not loose ball, Anna blocks into Paige’s hands.

 

[chrissaran]

Evina's laser pass to Aaliyah. Aaliyah made a heck of a catch on the ball.

MIne wasn't really a play, but when Paige and a HP player went for a loose ball and Paige snatched it just before she got there and the HP player went skidding across the hardwood about 15 feet. It was like Charlie Brown kicking the football and Lucy pulls it away at the last second! Hysterical!

 

[Husky fanatic]

When Anna blocks a shot it should be play of the game. Paige’s bullet to Christyn was icing on the cake

I was going to say the same thing. Paige gave the player a look like "what is that all about" that made me laugh out loud.

At the 3:51 mark of the 3rd quarter, Liv is at the FT line, and Evina, Paige and Christyn are designing a play.
After the FTs, HPU comes down and hits a 3.
Evina brings the ball up the court, does a spin-a-roony, passes to Paige who passes it to Christyn, who has posted up her defender, and at the 3:10 mark - swish. Just as they designed it!

Pretty much "Let me get this orb our of your way dear - wouldn't want you to trip." Or - "Were you coming for this? Not today, I'll keep it."

I liked Paige's defense on #12's (Edwards) drive down the right side of the key at 2:37 of the 1st Quarter. Paige got the big ONO-SWAT down onto the court a good foot in-bounds.

That was the good news...

The bad news was that the ball bounced high off the court and Edwards mistakenly caught it standing out-of-bounds BUT unfortunately and inexplicably, the ref awarded the ball to High Point even though a whistle was not blown until the out-of-bounds player touched the ball. Very poor job by the ref on an obvious play in clear view. Obviously knew it hit the court in-bounds off the block or the whistle would have been blown immediately when the ball struck the court. Got confused and wasn't professional enough to change the call when it was pointed out. 😒

 

[Gus Mahler]

I liked Evina's post-up and very quick turnaround 4-foot bank shot (and foul?). A power move from a big guard.

 

[jcoton56]

I liked Evinas laser pass to AE. The catch was as impressive as the pass.

Saw that but high point caught it out of bounds UConn was pointing it to the refs but to no avail high point ball

Did she squeeze or wrap around defenders back I couldn’t tell

100% but we missed the layup. Paige should be averaging 9 assists per game.

 

[AgStatesman]

Paige whipping a bounce pass off Aaliyah's head - back to herself where she dribbles baseline and swishes the 12 footer.

And the scorer didn't giver her the assist!

Aaliyah got the assist. (just kidding)

 

[Dogstar]

Great pass, but I don’t think an assist. But a foul called.

I thought so too
