Message: [QUOTE="RSHERMVIKES, post: 3999139, member: 2251"] Posted this on another thread but it can fit here also! I have my ideas who will be starting for UCONN WBB this coming season but there are so many factors that will be taken into consideration by the best coaching staff in WCBB! Obviously practice performance will dominate the choices, also injuries or illnesses! Remembering, as stated way above, CD2 was lame much of the end of her time at UCONN but Geno's loyalty to her and other seniors made a starter out of Carolyn Doty! She didn't average more than 10 minutes a game, but started all the games as I recall. Some factors I consider for players to earn a starting position or play major minutes are: Paige Bueckers - The winner of all major awards during her Freshman year will lead the team in minutes played! Azzi Fudd - As mentioned many times previously she didn't come to UCONN to sit the bench, but she can average the 2nd most playing minutes coming off the bench! Her and Paige on the court together has everyone salivating at the possibilities! Evina Westbrook - Another Senior who was one of the major reasons for the great development of the younger players and Geno will reward her for that! Nika Muhl - Geno really likes Nika's moxy and toughness and he always rewards these type of players with game minutes! Carolyn Williams - Another Senior that Geno will bend over backwards to reward her improvement mentally and physically from last season! Olivia Nelson-Ododa - As a Senior she has that going for her but has not showed up mentally in some huge games that now she has to really step up to earn major minutes! Aaliyah Edwards - Another young player that Geno thinks hung the moon. And is gathering big time experience with Canada's National Team! Saylor Poffenbarger - It will be interesting to see how much her early appearance at UCONN aided her true Freshman year. Mir McLean - An outstanding athlete that has to show she's also an outstanding BB player! Dorka Juhasz - Everything screams big-time player and if she shows that ONO's starting could be in trouble! Piath Gabriel - Could become very interesting if her skill level improves as much as a Sophomore as it did as a Freshman. Caroline Ducharme - She comes in with an impressive resume from HS and USA teams. She'll factor in quickly at UCONN! Amari DeBerry - Can wind up with important minutes if she lives up to her talent! Maybe a year away! Aubrey Griffin - As Mir above, has to take her super athletic body into a much improved BB player! Develop some-kind of outside shot to go with that dominating defense!! Remember everyone has potential, the difference is can they realize that potential? [/QUOTE]
