With Azzi Fudd and Sarah Strong, returning to the court and Geno Auriemma returning to the barrier, Uconn is expected to be a constant championship in women’s university basketball next year.
Even with Paige Bueckers to the WNBA, the Huskies are still armed with the most winning coach in the sport, perhaps the best shooter in the sport in FUDD, and a versatile that everything that seems in strong that seems to have an unlimited amount of potential. A healthy Caroline Duchar me will also return to Uconn, like other key taxpayers such as KK Arnold, Ashlynn Shade, Ice Brady and Jana El Alfy.
On Wednesday he thought, that list has just improved a lot.
Uconn received a commitment from one of the best players on the portal in the Wisconsin striker, Serah Williams. The 6 -foot native 4 inches from Brooklyn, New York, made the announcement in his X account.
Williams, the sources confirmed to SB Nation, also had a bone seriously considering LSU and North Carolina. He visited the Uconn campus earlier this week along with the USC Guard Kayleight Heckel.
In Wisconsin, Williams was a double-double machine and made the first All-Big Ten team this season, a year after he won the award for the defensive player of the Conference as a second year student. In three seasons, it began in 89 of the 91 games in which he played and averaged 16.4 points and 8.6 rebounds per game while fired 51.5 percent from the floor. Last season, it was one of the four national players to average at least 19 points, nine rebounds and two blocks per game.
Williams entered the transfer portal on March 12, a few days after Wisconsin and former coach Marisa Moseley separated after four years. The separation was framed as mutual, but Moseley, a former Uconnes assistant, never had a winning season with the Badgers and was accused by a former player earlier this year of abuse and emotional abuse. Wisconsin then hired former Missouri coach Robin Pingeton.
While he has never played in a NCAA tournament game, Williams has some experience beating the enemies of the Big East of Uconn. She scored the best 36 points of her career, and also had 14 rebounds, in an extra two -time victory in Butler last season.
He immediately becomes the most experienced UConn striker, since no other post player in the Huskies list has more than two years of experience. Your addition will also renounce alignment flexibility. Huskies can play big with Williams in Power Forward, Alfy in the center and strong on Small Forward, or they can play smaller with Williams in 5 and Strong in 4.
Anyway, Williams is a great addition to the auremma side and only increases his chans to capture his 13th ring next season.
