I'm procrastinating, so ....

I feel like Watkins' biggest skills are freethrow shooting and getting to the line. Against Ole Miss (the ony good team they've played), she was 8-19, including 1-4 on threes. Pretty mediocre. But, she went 10-12 on FT's. Additionally, she had 9, that's 9 TO's, against 4 assists. Her stats last year: 40% from the field, 32% on threes, 4 TO's pg, 3 assists pg.

I feel like, defend her, but don't foul her. Like teams were doing to Mack last season after he got figured out: make her make the shot. She'll make some circus shots that will be demoralizing, but in the end, she's going to shoot 40% from the field. Have an on ball defender to make her work. Have your bigs ready to come challenge the shot, but do.not.touch her. Make her make the shot. JMO.
