But Papadaki does look like a good all-around player, with some height and length for a guard. I like the hustle plays on the reel. Her jumpshot is slow but she has a great floater. Can score from all three levels.
Ten names are currently showing on the official roster, and we know Betts Nivar and Lepolo will take three slots. Add Papadaki and there still is one more scholarship available, isn't there?
Very nice get. Highlights, yes, but nothing looked fluky. She has quick and soft hands (her blocks were straight up, not slaps, and she often came away with the ball). And she seems to have good body control, which helps offset the only moderate quickness. Her release outside is a bit low, but her ability to drive will hopefully buy her enough space. And her handle and vision may be good enough that she can help with the PG by committee we seem headed towards.
It seems we are "replacing" the Hull twins with the Greek "twins". Those are some big shoes to fill but hopefully it's no longer a gaping hole.
