Another Big East win. Sarah looks like she's getting better every game and Im not sure that was possible. She'll be Player of the Year is she keeps this up and it will be consensus. KK playing at this level changes everything about UConn. If she's defending and scoring, UConn won't lose. Ash's shot is here and there but her effort is always high and she does many little things that add up to big chunks. Blanca attacks the rim so hard, plays so well. She has freshman moments but she's solid.
Azzi is adjusting to being the top perimeter threat again. Defenses are doing so much to deny her and she needs to hold on to the aggressiveness we saw in NCAA tournament. I don't care about her percentages, she needs to shoot with confidence and it will figure itself out.
The bench was masterful and deserves MVP for me. I think I noticed something...this team is bored. Having the OGs in the building brought out a different energy from everyone. Excited to see them in the NCAA tournament. I think they're all waiting to get there and yes, taking it "day by day" but I expect the Notre Dame game to be their best because ranked or unranked, UConn will want to send a message to the team in green.
