She should sit until she can clap her hands.

It would have been more interesting if you had used "rebounds" instead of blocks. We are used to watching Kiah block everybody who set foot in the lane. Natalie is not the same player as Kiah. I expect her to be a push-and-shove player for rebounds, and she will probably get a few fouls that way. She may even get a few opponents riled after they receive an inadvertent elbow in the teeth. But I expect her to pull down rebounds at a rate that will make you think of Tina Charles. I don't think she has the agility and timing to block shots (without fouling) in anywhere near the quantity that Kiah did.

I don't think she will play but if she does, it will be something I have been waiting to see since I found out she transferred to UCONN
I think she did't debut at Colgate because it was Stewie's night. The starting 5 was comfortable and that plays into Stewie's game. Barring no new issues with her thumb, Natalie should play a limited number of minutes against FSU.

I'm with my friend UConnfan68. Until she can do the simple act of clapping her hands, she should probably continue sitting. The chances are great that if you play, your hand will be stressed far more than when clapping your hands. If you watched Nat on the bench, she's still clapping her right hand against her left forearm. Not a good sign that she was ready to play under any circumstances at Colgate. Had nothing to do with Stewie's home game.
