Sydney Colson

Once I got here, doing the same thing, like, we'll have shoot-around.

She'll stay after to get shots up with Kelsey.

with Karima.

Um, and I would always make sure to just tag along with her.

Cause I was just, I've always been impressed by her work ethic and this girl just, she plays hard on both ends.

There've been so many seasons where she hasn't gotten the respect or the, the recognition that I think was owed to her.

What she did this year was extremely, um, impressive to me because this girl is

deals with double double teams she was already impressive last year but found a way to do even more this year and i just i look at her like what is it that you're gonna do next season like what how are you gonna i don't know how do you elevate from here

But I know she found a way this year to become even more focused defensively.

And I don't think that got enough credit.

Like people don't they don't attack Kelsey on the defensive end.

Like she's going to hold her own even when it's bigger matchups.

And I don't know.

I'm just I'm constantly impressed by her, the player she is and the person she is.

She's she's just a solid individual.

You know, as competitors in basketball, like we just want to play.

Like if we see people playing that we played against and we battle, we're just like, oh, well, I mean, if they still playing, like for sure I can play.

I just need the right opportunity to,

And it really, it kept being pretty much my whole career was just need the right opportunity, right opportunity.

And, you know, sometimes it would work playing time-wise.
