you know, women's professional basketball and obviously college basketball too. It's just that change, but that's kind of how it has to be too. So it's just different, but I think I feel lucky too, because we had the Olympic break.

So I got a month off in the middle of the season because we had to pause the WNBA season because, you know, the 12 girls go, go and play in the Olympics and everybody else, you're not doing much. So got to like a month off, which I really needed, obviously, because I'd been playing basketball for just a year straight, but yeah,

For sure. And like you come in as a rookie and like you said, like you're trying to figure out a new environment, new teammates. Like you don't want to say too much. You don't want to say too little. And it's just so hard. But like in my scenario and obviously you guys too, like you're already highly thought of. Like people are turning to you to like be something or be someone. So it's hard.

Like you're trying to find your get your feet wet, but also not do too much. And I think that's kind of what I struggled in early on is like, I don't know what to say. I don't know how to say it. I don't know how they're going to react. For not knowing you nailed it. But also like I had a lot of really good vets around me, too. So I feel very grateful for that. And we had a fairly young team, too.

So like people had been through it fairly recently. So they knew how I felt. But like I feel like that definitely is a huge challenge. And that goes for whatever professional sport like you're trying to learn. But also people are looking at you like you got to perform and like be what they drafted you to be. And that can be tough.

Yeah, there was quite a few. Somebody that comes to the top of my head is Tamika Ketchings, who was an MVP in the WNBA. She won their championship here, I think, I want to say 2012, when the Fever won their championship. She was what made the Indiana Fever really good. That was our prime. That was when we were really good. And then after... Tamika retired.

The fever kind of went down a little bit as every team does. Once you're, you know, franchise player retires and moves away from basketball. And she's still really big here in the Indianapolis community. And she was one of the first people to text me after I got picked and still checks in on me. So it's cool.
