Not many of those points came against Carrington. She held Clark to 2-10 shooting and forced 8 of her 10 turnovers. She indeed did shut down CC.sizzles0 said:
So game high 20 points is "shut down" now. K.

Personally I never thought she would shine as bright at first as she did in college. In addition to upgrade in competition the hype put a big target on her, she will get everyone's best defensive efforts. In time she will become an all star level player or better but it will take time.fredbear said:
Update
Next game against Liberty Clark scored only 9 points with only 1/7 from three point line. That is abysmal 14 percent! Many of.us said in previous threads that the world needed to give her time to adjust to the competition in wnba. But media hype and Nike would have none of it. She owned the game in college, the game not owns her. She will be a good player given time, but not sure she will ever own the sport again. Because of the BU players on Fever, I am pulling for her to be phenomenal, but the competition is way different in W. Lower expectations are a must.
