[Dillon77]

Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird, Maya Moore on First Team, while Tina Charles is on second of this Sport Illustrated article.

Author mentions those who just missed the cut -- Breanna Stewart, Lindsay Whelan, among them -- and believes that if Stewie comes back from her injury, she'll be a dominant figure in the next decade.

But candice on first team also. 1 big game does it but last playoff game was still in this decade and should push her off.

Shouldn’t this be on the UConn main page as this is mostly about UConn players?

The best of the best.

Whalen should 100% be on there. My list would be:


1st Team:
Whalen
Taurasi
Moore (Player of the Decade)
Parker
Fowles

2nd Team:
Bird
EDD
Nneka
Griner
Charles

Amazing. Bird, Taurasi and Moore definitely belong on the first team.

Her own coach doesn't think she's a 1st teamer.

If Candace’s last playoff game pushes her off, Taurasi’s six-game 2019 season might push her off too. 10% from the field and 4% from three. It’s not easy to do that

I don't think Diana ever got physically right. Parker's issues are deeper.
