This is pretty realistic. I'm not sure if any of the other returning players have say a star level potential of Azzi this year as the third star. Blanca probably has more upside than the returnees, and the next most likely third star is probably Williams from the portal.

Ashlynn may be the best of the returning players outside of the big 2, but she is a natural 2 as is Azzi. Neither is effective as a 1, and both are significantly less effective as a 3. Paige's versatility will be missed because she was long enough and athletic enough that her playing at the 3 or wing was not sacrificing anything at that position. A more natural 3 like Blanca has a definite advantage there if she is ready.

Williams might be the next most likely "star" if we can get her. While it is hard to imagine any big three next year being as good as this year's version, in an ideal world Blanca comes in as a star from the beginning, we get Williams and we have a big 4 instead.
