People seem to be up on Iriafen and down on Brink all of a sudden. The one thing I will say is that Kiki is not the shot blocker that Cameron is. Brink had 7 in limited minutes tonight.
Brink is a more unique prospect with her size, length and all around skill. Kiki is more explosive. Both should be solid pros.
I'm still high on Brink, but the disappointing piece is that she's never learned how to avoid fouls and it was magnified in the tournament. The last 2 weekends she made horribles choices and picked up avoidable fouls. As a senior and 3x All American, you'd expect her to be smarter about picking her battles and knowing the importance of staying on the court even if she gives up a bucket or 2. It nearly cost Stanford in the second round and arguably did cost them in the Sweet 16. Someone with her experience should have better basketball IQ in those moments and shouldn't be fouling out with 7-8 minutes left in the game.
