Message: [QUOTE="jdote33, post: 5044238, member: 11252"] Thanks for the post. As others mentioned, I actually think Timea Gardiner is great/like super talented/steal of the portal. So her, Betts, Barker, and as u mentioned Dugalic is pretty stout to me. I was super high on Dugalic last year and still am as I realize she was recovering from injury, but she shot 35 percent from the floor last season and struggled with shot selection in my eyes. But I get what ur saying choosing a 18 yr old vs a 22 to be 23 year old is interesting. Shows how deep UCLA is though. As for CLW, she got injured in January and had the surgery in February. A year out would be a bit tough to come back and fit in. 9 months on the flip side would be the first month of the season,and maybe there's a middle ground. Ashley Owusu this past year started playing games on January 14, and almost lead Penn State to the tournament. So, idk even if she got back in January, and imo there will be some in conference games against weak opponents that she'll be able to get her groove back. I hear you on juju, but I do think playing with better talent will help. She's playing with arguably a lottery pick in the draft next year. Also Kennedy Smith is a dawg and they were somewhat rivals in high school. I just think the team is a bit more balanced this year. I think Juju is a scorer so I think she should stay super aggressive. I think the difference will be her number won't be called as much. [/QUOTE]
