An article from the win at Tulsa about Alison Lacey
The Storm's lead has allowed Brian Agler to pull his starters early and get the team's younger reserves some work. That's especially help for rookies Alison Lacey and Abby Bishop, both of whom need court time at this point in their development. We had a good conversation with Brian Agler the other day about Lacey's confidence. Agler shared what I think a lot of us have suspected - that Lacey really needs to see a three-pointer go through the hoop, which would lift a weight of her shoulders. She's 0-of-10 from beyond the arc this season but was a lights-out shooter at Iowa State and is at practices as well. Like a lot of rookies, Lacey appears to think too much on the floor because she's not yet comfortable reacting. But every bit of playing time she gets the rest of the way will help that process.
--Alison Lacey played 10 min today and scored 3pts (All from the free throw line.) She shot a technical and a shooting foul one
-She had 2 turnovers.
-She also had 4 shot attempts, 3 came from the 3pt line. (2 almost went in)
Just a great article.
