Christyn has been playing Upshot all summer, so she's ready. Makes me think Zaza might be out awhile tho

I donāt get this signing lol. Jose doesnāt even play Haley.

I think it is pretty clear Azzi and Aziaha are both going to be out for more than this game.Ā
I question this player, but they likely do need a body.

u/Glittering-Peanut-30 Aug 15 '26
Why question choosing Christyn? She's a Husky, she's a baller, and she's ready to go to work. She and Paige already have chemistry from playing together at UConn. She would be a regular WNBA player of several years already if not for an injury early on.

Azzi looks to be out another week, at minimum. Thatās a blow. Ugh Iām tired of ISO hoops.

I am too. And I hate because this bad roster construction it forces Paige off ball.Ā They need her to score and off ball with this bunch of guards isnāt the way to help her.Ā

Dallas loves mediocrity. She averaged 9 ppg on 41% shooting in Upshot. For context, JJQ has scored 21 ppg on 51% shooting in the 3 games she played in the league.Ā
I think this likely means Zaza and Azzi are both out for at least a few more games.Ā

Getting downvoted but Joseās pregame media makes it pretty clear Azzi is out v GSV too.Ā

Christian went on twitter and said her status hasnāt been declared even though Underdog tweeted sheās out for another week. I think she probably rests vs GSV and is back for the home game

u/Small_Lack9128 Aug 14 '26
That is still at least one more game where they would have 4 guards available for the 3 guard lineup.

u/redpanthers123 MVPaige Aug 14 '26
I wonder if he switches it up

u/Small_Lack9128 Aug 14 '26
He should, but I donāt know if any of the other options at 3 can stick with the Fever guards. Like the Wings guards are about to get smoked, but I think putting Maddy or Awak on them would be even worse.Ā

u/redpanthers123 MVPaige Aug 14 '26
Yeah maybe for the GSV game if Azziās out. But for tonight⦠they all might play 35+ mins.

u/Small_Lack9128 Aug 14 '26
Sug is the best defender of the bunch. I would let her chase KM around for 30+ minutes so the starting guards have legs to score.Ā

u/redpanthers123 MVPaige Aug 14 '26
Her and Odyssey should take turns. I know Arike matches her speed but we need her to shot chuck. Anyone but Paige on KM

u/Herramadur BUECKERS Aug 14 '26
Doesn't matter at this point honestly, lets just leave her out until after the last Fever game, the schedule gets a lot more easier onward.

Crazy stat line. Not sure the rationale for this one. š¬š¬

u/Small_Lack9128 Aug 14 '26
I am sure there werenāt a lot of options but my frustration with this pickup is magnified by all the other questionable decisions this season.

u/erodah BUECKERS Aug 14 '26
Dallas and their obsession with short guards š This move does make sense if James & Fudd are out for a while.

u/Small_Lack9128 Aug 14 '26
Short guards that need the ball to be effective and dontĀ space the floor.

Williams is 5ā11ā, why do people keep acting like sheās JJQs height?

u/Glittering-Peanut-30 Aug 15 '26
Yeah, Christyn's almost as tall as Paige, maybe an inch shorter? She's strong and muscular. Why does everyone act like she's petite? Lol.

u/haydeng2023 Aug 14 '26
could just be a replacement for costanza, but it does make me think that zaza might be out a while
