She may be cleared to start the season, but I doubt she has been able to participate fully in strength and conditioning during the offseason. She can't match the intensive weight work the healthy players are doing.

We saw this with Brianna Turner two years ago after shoulder surgery. It was February before she had the strength and stamina to play like her sophomore self. In Samuelson's case, leg S&C is likely to be curtailed as she rehabs her foot.
