““Dev is that player that every good team has. She is an incredible athlete who is gifted with great skill. She jumps really well, she’s got tremendous hands, quick feet. She runs the floor, so she’s hard for the other team; she puts pressure on the defense to get back. She can block shots, she can defend on the perimeter.””
