Sarah Strong, the top-ranked recruit in the class of 2024, committed to UConn at halftime of the Chipotle Nationals championship Saturday.
Strong was the last recruit to commit from the ESPN 100 and was deciding from among UConn, Duke and North Carolina. She joins a loaded 2024 class for the Huskies that also includes No. 4 Allie Ziebell and No. 18 Morgan Cheli.
“Just watching them play … watching and realizing I can help them and be there. I’m just ready to be there and practice and play,” Strong said of her decision to choose UConn, adding she felt the Huskies can help her reach her goal of playing in the WNBA. “I like the style and feel like I fill a need there. I’m drawn to the championship culture.”
Host Danny Leroux and Ben Golliver of the Washington Post break down the NBA’s stretch run.
The two discuss the playoff pictures in both conferences, how some teams could respond to playoff disappointment, Paul George’s future, the playoff series they most want to happen and much more.
