I'm Stoked about Stokes.

Can we state that Kiah Stokes is a bona fide star in the WNBA? 7 points per game, 7.4 rebounds (top 10), and 2 blocks (third in the league). Sounds like a star to me! Can we say that Stokes has arrived?

Stokes has indeed claimed her stake. I just enjoy watching her play.

The announcers said--rightfully so--that she is one of the premier defenders in the league.

Renee seems to be finally playing in the WNBA with the cockiness that she had in college. I love watching her.
Renee has gotten her confidence and is finally with a team that knows how to utilize her skills. She seems to be happy , comfortable , healthy , and ready to contribute whenever she is called on.

She is having quite a year. Maya gets a lot of the ink, but check out this assist to get out of a trap by Renee in Minnesota's win against Atlanta.


Java , I had not seen that assist.............But that 'Dime' is really worth about 11 cents. One(1) more than just a simple dime.

Not yet. Love Kiah & she is having a good season but 7 points per game does not a star make. Elizabeth Williams who Kiah routinely killed in college is averaging 12 points per game and nearly as many rebounds as Kiah 7.0 and leading the league in blocked shots @2.5 per game.

Seems like an overstatement to me. Anyway..... I suppose that Williams killed Kiah when the Liberty and Dream matched up last month ?

No that is why it said "in college"-where Williams had very little success against Kiah.

Other than the freshman year matchup, I dont remember Stokes playing that many minutes in the other games. I do remember Williams not having much success vs Dolson in games 2 and 3

Last night she blocked four shots. She now leads the league in blocked shots per 40 minutes. And she's second in the league in blocked shots overall. It's not just scoring that makes one a star. Ask Courtney van der Sloot.

Elizabeth Williams will be a strong candidate for Most Improved Player. She's playing better than I've ever seen her.

Again, I love Kiah. Courtney Van der Sloot is not a star either.
