Jump’s role also reminds me of Krista Rappahahn. Amazing three-point shooter, ok one defense… but it was her ability to spread the floor that really made her valuable as a senior. I see Jump playing a similar role, where as a long as she isn’t a liability too much on defense, her offense is what will keep her on the floor.

Yes, I agree.   Jump will probably start every game.  If the match up in any particular game is such that Jump is victimized by her mark, then Emma-Nnopu might come in for her as a defensive specialist.  Will Jump improve her defense as much as Emma-Nnopu improves her offense?  We will have to wait and see.  Wouldn't it be great if both of them excelled and became equal in both dimensions!
