Jump’s contribution to our games seems to me to be to burn the defense if it ignores her (she is still hitting at a high percentage), create an offensive rhythm by running her routes on the offensive end of the court, taking her defender as far out of the key as possible to open up the key, and playing tenacious defense (I know that some of our posters don’t agree, but watch her, she never stops running!). I am concerned by what seems to be her greatest strength — commitment to excellence by being the first in and out of the gym — all that repetitive movement in her shoulder. In the off season, she didn’t rest. Instead she participated on England’s 3x international team. I know just how much my own physiology has pushed back against repeated use of the computer. At what point does the shoulder start to “talk back”?
