The Battle for Playing Time & a Spot on the Rotation

Actually, it might in fact be easier for Morgan to shoot with those three on the floor, the second one of Paige, Azzi or Sarah gets the ball near the basket, Morgan should be wide open.
Have you not been watching the games (replays on YouTube)? If you had, you would realize that your theory is incorrect. When one of the Top 3 has the ball, they are first and foremost looking another of the other Top 3 to pass to. They definitely aren't looking to pass the ball to a player they know is hesitant to shoot ... even when wide open. And, when she does shoot she usually misses at this stage of her career.

Oh, and Kaitlyn, by the way, won't be coming off the bench anytime soon. She is a starter and will remain a starter. Have you not noticed that she is beginning to score ... repeatedly? Perhaps you should try watching the games for your answers on occasion! ;)
 
I was looking at QS's stats from last year and this year. She shot almost 100 threes last year and made 35.4% which is very good (only 21% this season on way fewer shots). Her assist to turnover ratio was much better last season. It's 1:7 this season which is not good. I love her movement and energy when she gets in, but her 7 mpg vs 12+ last season, doesn't seem to allow her to get in the offensive flow. I know the team is deeper than last year, but I think she can contribute more. I was expecting her numbers to improve this season, but she only gets garbage time minutes. She's a great athlete on a team that's somewhat lacking in athleticism.
