Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 5325375, member: 9844"] I remember some step back and fall-aways from mid-range in her game. Not so much the classic Paige or Azzi put on the breaks and then a smooth pull up jumper, but stopping a drive, turning your back to the defender and falling away. Time will tell, but at this point I would consider her getting out on the break, and attacking the basket in the half court as her biggest offensive strengths, the mid range game next, and her perimeter shooting being the biggest question mark. I think her offensive game will depend somewhat on what position she plays. I consider her more 3 than 4. At that position she may even post up some smaller opponents, and the mid-range game against smaller 3's could be a go to move. At the 4 her advantage would be her quickness. If she can make them guard her at the 3pt line, I don't see many college 4's that could stay in front of her on drives to the basket, but being good enough from the perimeter to make defenders come out is the key there. I believe she has been very efficient on two point shots and has the ability to create those on her own. Getting some easy baskets on the break is also a given for her IMO. I expect her to be pretty good moving without the ball (more to the hoop than the 3pt line) but if she can nail the perimeter shot consistently she could be a well rounded scorer that was way above average on volume and efficiency.
