I agree 100%. She reminds me of Maya Moore.  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.

Really Jonnyss? Wow. Do NOT take my comment out of context. I did not say Haley Jones was not impactful. This is a Stanford board so why would I throw our own players under the bus and a player that helped accomplish what you mentioned. I said some years the top recruit is less impactful. Mercedes Russel, Megan Walker, Christian Williams come to mind. Great players but not the level of a Maya Moore, Griner, or Breanna Stewart. JuJu is in the latter category.

my bad. i'm of course happy to place your comment, unabridged, in context:  you wrote, "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 that, just above, you edited out your comment about haley. thanks! certainly, without the gratuitous comparison to haley, it does read simply as a tribute to juju.
