Smith holds a very high basketball IQ and is a great decision maker with the ball. She can handle the rock and can make athletic plays with the ball in her hands.
Place is a very consistent scorer that has proven very comfortable with being relied upon as the go-to scorer. She’s so consistent offensively so whatever defenses run into her in the post season can pretty much count on her getting buckets and doing it well.
