“I’ve watched her a ton. Highly competitive. I think it’s a player whose athleticism is probably below what we see in our league, but I think she can make up for it in the other things that she does. The ability to shoot it, she scores in different ways, she gets fouled. Highly competitive, and I think that can get you a long, long ways. We aren’t planning for her to be available to us when we pick again at 16. I do think that she’s probably going to do in the latter part of the first round.”
