WNBA All-Star Starters Announced

Five out of ten are Huskies. Geno must be proud.

I was going to ask who here was proud that five out of the 10... or 1/2 were Huskies.
I hope recruits recognize this

Jasmine Thomas.... All-Star Starter ... ?

I hope someone does an in depth story on Jasmine's circuitous route to this point. Her perseverance and work ethic is really kind of inspirational.

Who nailed Tiff's All-Star appearence on May 13th?.... This guy.

I don't know, there was a question mark after it.

that's what I was thinking

She played in the shadow of Maya, then played in the shadow of Angel. Nice to see her getting her due. She is playing great, especially for a second round pick.

Nice rejection of Nneka! Her first step is still world-class. She may be the fastest player I've seen not named Moriah Jefferson or Courtney Williams.

She still holds the UConn record for 30 points in a half. Geno said, when Tiff is on top of her game, she can be the best player on the floor. Maya was on the team when Geno said that, and Tina may have been as well.

Tiff was a steal in the second round!

Here are the starters along with the draft pick number:

EAST:
EDD 2 (behind Griner)
Tiff Hayes 14
Jas Thomas 12
Jonquel Jones 6
Tina 1

WEST:
Taurasi 1
Bird 1
Fowles 2 (behind Parker)
Maya 1
Parker 1

So, lots of #1 picks and 2 double-digit picks. Has anyone else noticed that Tiff is going by Tiffany Kiara Hayes?
