Hard to say unless other players or coaches are willing to be quoted
and their number and identity are such as to make their comments credible.
Which is not the case.
But then, players almost never allow themselves to be quoted publicly, in a negative vein and by name, about other players.
It
is the case that the "selfish" accusations, as supposedly made by other players, have been swirling around Ms. Parker for a long time.
Here's a randomly selected example.
Caveat: No idea as to credibility. But it has persistently been out there in email Scoop Groups and social media.
I heard it specifically in the former context (sources with pretty good track record) at the time of the selection.
My point is not truth or falsehood. Maybe spreading this stuff is the work of Russian trolls. Maybe, on the other hand, where there's smoke . . .
My point was to answer DC's (typically tweaking of UConn fans) comparison of CP's on-court demeanor with that of DT.
Works the refs a lot, perhaps excessively, yes. Selfish, no.
I used the word "credibly," upon which you focus, Coco, just because I can't swear that no one's ever called DT selfish on the court.
But again, there's just no such narrative about her, and rightly so.
So Cambage was their only bulk, physical player in Rio.
