Message: [QUOTE="psconn, post: 2684043, member: 293"] A little early for this but I'm pretty psyched... 5 true posts, 7 true guards, 2 swings, 2 TBD - 12 woman roster when all is said and done. I'll say it again, 12 is not enough. This training camp is going to be extremely competitive and I hope some pleasant surprises emerge.

Now or never. Lots of good guards coming in. Had a good season in the WNBL. I hope she can prove all doubters wrong in camp but...

Don't know if she was really happy in that role and she was dealing with a bad ankle.

She was an All-Star and MVP in the WNBL but that's not a really strong league. No one plays harder than Kelsey and the fans love that.
