Mabrey listed at #12 is interesting to me.  I'm not totally sure she has the athleticism to stick at the next level.  But she's tough, determined, a good passer, and a great shooter, so maybe she has a chance.  Think maybe she's more of a 2nd round pick, though.

Turner has some obvious question marks.  She's 6'3 and fairly lean, so she'd be small to play center.  To play the 4, you really need to have midrange jumper or you become an offensive liability.  Reports are that Turner has been working on that shot while she rehabs her knee.

On the other hand, she has plenty of athletic ability, she's a very good defender and a shot-blocker, and most of all she's just a player.  Some people just have the instinctive ability of how to play the game and be effective.

Athletically, she reminds me a little of Jessica Breland.  With Breland's moon-ball midrange shot, she'd be an easy high first-round pick.  I think Turner is a little bit out "out of sight, out of mind" for some people.  She is listed 4th among the ND players here and I think she could have the best career.
