It's hard to tell from the games they've played this year. But she seems to have decent post moves, though she missed an easy layup against one of the creampuffs. She also seems to be pretty mobile.
I recently watched some of NC ST games and she will be trouble for us. When she gets the ball its going up. She is a big body with some nice quick spins and when she goes up she goes up strong. She could get our bigs in foul trouble. We could double her and see if she gives the ball up. I think Dorka at 6'5" is our best option on her.

Very interesting question. Maybe Amari to not impact the rotation/flow too much.
Aubrey has been playing great, so I could see her getting the nod.
I'm a super big Caroline fan and think she'd thrive in the starting lineup.
All great options in my opinion.

Amari is not ready to start and Aubrey appears best off the bench. Caroline has to get the start and give us 5 good minutes before Aubrey comes in to rest Caroline. I think Ayanna makes it in before Amari although she will get 15+ minutes at least. Hurry up Jana

I'm guessing Aubrey, with Ayanna expected to bring some energy off the bench. I wish I could expect Amari to contribute some meaningful and productive minutes but so far (unfortunately) I haven't seen anything to make me a believer.
Is Caroline still on limited minutes?
UConn didn’t have much of an answer for either Diamond Johnson or Jada Boyd in last year’s NCAAT spectacle so I think y’all are going to need Patterson’s athleticism on the latter.
One area where UConn will have a significant advantage is coaching. Wes Moore seems as nice and classy as they come and has built a fine program back up at NC State, but he’s made a number of headscratching decisions in close games over the past few years. I still have no idea why Johnson never touched the floor in OT back in March.
