She’s a much better perimeter shooter than Haley Jones. Some years the top recruit in the class is great but less impactful. I see Watkins as very impactful anywhere she goes. She will be a WNBA star some day. I really think so.
maybe juju is indeed the next maya moore, but "some years the top recruit in the class is...less impactful"...really? seems you are forgetting that haley (the top recruit i presume you are referencing) led the team to a national championship and won final 4 mvp?" i'll take that kind of impact any day.
Jones and Watkins are different kinds of players. Jones is special because of her versatility. She reminds me of WNBA star Alyssa Thomas who is not the best shooter but is still a great player. Perhaps a better example of a top high school player who struggled to make a big impact in college (even though she was still a very good player) was UConn’s Megan Walker.
Thank you. I concur. That is the exact point I was trying to make and others took it way out of context.
