Ugh was just about to ask whether anyone knew how she was doing. There are so few slots in the WNBA that being injured for two years before she had a chance to prove herself may have been too big and obstacle to overcome.
Williams was a long shot to make it even before her injury. Her being listed as the number one player in her class out of high school created a reputation that carried her though much of her college career. Playing for UConn did not hurt either. In WBB exposure and visability counts more than actual production. I remember the fan base waiting every year for her to fullfill the promise they had for her, which never transpired. She was a fringe player at best before her injury. If a player is really good missing a season will not hinder them. It is a death blow to those who's needed everything to break for them. Bottom line she ws never good enough to play in the WNBA. There are even some player who make a roster for a short time that end up out very soon, because they are not good enough.
I believe will talk meant Christyn Williams.
I think that the post is speaking of Christyn Williams. It happened to be within close proximity to one that I, ironically, posted about Gabby Williams with the same last name. That said, it had me initially wondering.
Yes, I was referring to Christyn Williams. Gabby was a beast who could make it on her pure athetic abilities alone. That leave a lot of upside for development. I did not see your post.
