Nurse is a prospect? |
Some Liberty fans are very high on Nurse...I believe she's overrated,or at least was overrated at the start of last season when espn picked Nurse as a preseason top 10 player. |
+Wings Fans
KLS is the real jewel of that team. Im sure every W team wouldn't mind adding her to the fold! |
LouUconn had a great shooting game like she normally does, and I was happy to see her defending the post, but I’m not sure I would take her 1st over all in 2019, Brown from Baylor is a Top 2 pick next year. |
LMAO Of course you wouldn't you have been dissing her since day one.
For others, problem with Brown is she is slow and teams seem to be going away from the slow bigs with the defensive 3 secs and wanting more space. |
6'7 Brown moves well for a player her size, I think she can be like Kara Braxton without the drama, only time will tell but I think Brown can be a future All Star/All WNBA team type player. |

Sue Bird praising Wilson
https://twitter.com/WNBA/status/930120815504515077?s=09
In the clip they show Wilson blowing by Stokes like Kiah didn't belong at the Team USA camp. Well, Stokes really didn't belong so not a strong argument.

Huh?
That's like saying Karl Malone had a little bit of Michael Jordan in him.
In other words, I see no similarity in the players or their games whatsoever other than that they're both tall.
Wilson's a good player. Right now, with another season to go, would have to be considered the run away 1st pick in next year's draft. But not because she's similar to Delle Donne. Because she's not. Their games are completely different.

I believe they were comparing KLS to Delle Donne. Not Wilson.

Because a) she's one of the most effective scorers the game's ever seen, which means you put up with all sorts of garbage on defense; and b) she's big, long and highly coordinated.
Samuelson probably won't be as damaged by her defense and mobility as much as Mosqueda-Lewis, but she also won't be able to get away with it as much as Delle Donne. Somewhere in the middle. And like Delle Donne, she'll be better off if she can survive as a 4, rather than a 3. |

KLS will be best suited at SF.
