That’s fair, and my criticism is not deep. I like Chloe’s game, and she averaged 10 and 8 all season. Those are solid numbers for a starting 4. It’s just that in the loss to UCLA she seems pretty clearly to be a weak point, and in the loss to Texas. And for the record, she did better in the win against Texas, though Lee and Mwenentanda were clearly off their games in that one. And in the first loss to UConn (sorry to bring up a sore spot) she scored a few baskets but began to shrink from open elbow jumpers once the tide had turned.

This is why I said she may not be ‘the rock’ Dawn needs to build that frontline around. That has to be Joyce, but not if she’s playing the 5. Either Chloe plays the 4 next to Joyce or the 3 next to Joyce and some 5. Neither configuration looks optimal to me. She looks like she could shine as a 6th woman to me. She could be a game changer in that role.

And I know this criticism is unfair since I’m cherry picking the 3 toughest games to evaluate Chloe. But there aren’t a lot of losses to choose from last season.
