When Paige is active and defenders are gravitating to her, there never seems to be anyone she can lob the ball into inside. She's always stuck looking around the perimeter.
Anyone know why Li isn't even getting a chance?
Marina Mabrey just chucked up 11 3-pointers, some of them absolute chucks, and the Toronto Tempo are now 1-1. They lost their opener by 3 points and Mabrey is averaging 27 points.
Paige > Marina. Dallas won't reach their potential until Paige gets more aggressive. Arike actually looks like she's trying to play team ball but no one else wants to take the shot.

Is this a unique approach or do all players do something like this? I could see players like Olsen really benefiting from this.

Have to agree with Caitlin. Any competent team would kill to have her. Mystics are still way under the minimum spending requirement.
She's only making 650k on a one year deal and she's spoken out about her contract. I can't imagine she wouldn't have come to DC for a fully guaranteed two year contract at 1 million per year. She's exactly what the team needs.
I know most of you still won't understand but giving her a contact like that wouldn't impact the team this year or next. They have to spend the money anyways so right now they're paying Onyenwere more than Sophie and they'll have to do one or two more moves like that.
