There are more eyes on women’s college basketball than ever before.
DT: “It’s about damn time, I mean where have all these people been? Sometimes I have conversations with the older players and we’re like, it's finally got here. We’ve had some amazing basketball players the last 50 years and it’s almost a shame that they didn’t get the same amount of coverage and the same amount of respect. You know, this country has a fascination with young female athletes. And then it goes away which I don't understand. Whether it's the young gymnast, the young skateboarder, the young pitcher. And then it's like once you become a professional, it all goes away. But that’s the pinnacle. If you’re the best in the pros, then you’re the best in the world and I think people have to still remember that when it comes to women’s sports.”
I think Shakira Austin and Aliyah Boston are competing for the same USA roster spot. I don't see the selection committee putting both of them on the Olympic roster. I think they're only going to pick one or the other.
It's tough because I genuinely can't tell you which one of them is a better player. They're exactly the same in my mind but Shakira has more international experience.
And BG is taking Brionna Jones spot.
For the guards, I'm guessing it'll be the same as the 2022 World Cup guards but Laney is getting replaced. Who is she getting replaced by? Well, I guess we'll see...
