Freelon is more mobile, athletic than Micheaux. Daley is like Lani White
Mel is more like Lani White, without the consistent 3 yet.
Mackie is doing to increase her average from last year and her assists (along with Wenzel's) are going to lead to more points.
Suffren playing all year brings 3 steals a game right now....
The biggest issue is still going to be interior defense and guarding screening action. We are vulnerable when interior players screen for guards. Guards get driving opportunities and/or rolling screeners are more likely to get open rolling.

For me, White was also the best defensive player we lost from last year....
