Hard start for Maya and Stewie

[SVCBeercats]

Maya's FG% and 3FG% are respectively but not respectfully 29.3% and 28.1%.
Stewie's FG% and 3FG% are respectively but not respectfully 28.9% and 29.4%.

Too much basketball in last 12 mos.? Need glasses?

Maya took the winter off and didn't play overseas, so too much basketball shouldn't be a problem in her case.

Stewart is coming off a knee injury which saw her return early from China, so I suspect that might account for some of her early shooting issues.

Tough start for other UConn alumnae. Bria Hartley, if I'm reading the stats correctly, has yet to score in four games this year. Kiah Stokes is well below last year's level of scoring. KML got into yesterday's game for less than a minute, and missed a shot.

KML bruised her knee in yesterday's game with NY.

I watched the second quarter wondering why KML wasn't in the game considering her 3 point shot is falling. Saw here that she got hurt

Stevie had a good game last night. Maya may not be shooting well, but she is doing everything else

Hope she's OK.

Hope she's OK.

According to Twitter she's day-to-day so it seems nothing too serious.

To add to the list of banged up Huskies in the WNBA:

Sue was grabbing at her left knee and asked to be subbed out of the game at :23.5 left in the game last night. It was coming out of a TO, she had been hit pretty hard a couple plays prior, and she was jogging around attempting to get it loosened up or test movement. Went to the bench grabbing it and moving it around. Not a good sign.

Yikes! You are correct. Taurasi's FG% (21.2%) and 3FG% (22.2) are worse than either Moore or Stewart.

Strangely, several alums are shooting poorly. Some, like Stewie, are coming back from injury. Some played overseas and may be a little tired or adjusting to the new team. Some, like Maya, took the winter off and may be a little rusty. By the end of the season, I expect that most will be near their historical norms.

With several players, the poor shooting may be partly the results of their shot mix. They need to get some easy layups to offset their jump shooting that is off. Maya may be affected by the Minny offense, which runs a low post through Sylvia, rather than the high post they ran though McCarville.

I saw that Kaleena played only 1 minute last night. I hope she and Sue are ok.

When we wake up in the morning and get out of bed, it's a good day. It sure beats the alternative.
