The most underrated and unappreciated truly great UCONN woman's basketball player

Kia Nurse. If Geno could produce a basketball player through the thoughts of his mind – that player would be very similar to Kia, in many ways.

Underrated outside of UCONN, not here.

I am betting that some good team that UConn plays this year will either overlook or forget about Kia. Remember the three-pointers she was able to launch in the second half of last year? The ones that were like nails in the coffin? I'm betting she gets a bunch of those again this year. Of course, part of the problem (for opponents) is the fact that you can only closely guard so many players, and UConn has several of those.

As the only upperclassman guard, Kia's going to be the indispensable glue of the team this year. It's a role she'll be exceedingly comfortable with. Leaders lead. It's what they do.

If you are speaking all-time...I'd advance Kiah Stokes. She's had terrific success in the WNBA but didn't even start.
Honorable mention : two young ladies that were only third team AA's but have had great WNBA careers...Tiff Hayes and Ashya Jones
