Arike Ogunbowale and Satou Sabally combined for 52 points in their win vs the Dream.
It's only the 3rd time in WNBA history a team has had multiple 25 point scorers in a season-opener. pic.twitter.com/m1XgC7tJoC
Domers and Ducks start hot. Satou's college teammate Sabrina is #11. Jess is leading the league in Assists at 7.
Of course its only 1 game but its a good start.
When I see Arike in there with Burton and Dangerfield, I just wonder where the consistent scoring is going to come from. Sabally is a wonderful talent, but she can start taking really funky shots. Howard's a solid player, particularly on defense. They'll need Big T to be in most of the time, too.
Have to see more games to see how this team meshes.
and the only players in double figures in the game. The Aces are more balanced so have the lead by 15 as Jackie has 11, Wilson 9, Plum 8, and Parker 7. And if you are keeping score on ND vs UConn since both teams have a a player from each school who've played, it's 21 to 2. Just a fun irrelevant stat.
Looks like the Aces will dominate the league with that line-up. The other teams need to catch up fast especially the Liberty who need to figure out how their big 3 will play together.
Aces had 6 players in doubles figures while Jewell was the only one for the Storm who will struggle without Stewart and Bird. Jackie's line pretty fantastic in just 26 minutes: 23 pts, 8-13, 3-4 threes, 5 rebs, 3 asts, 1 stl, 1 block.
ND's two had 45 pts in 55 minutes, UConn's two just 2 pts in 33 minutes.
Just doing the math.
