was the most physically dominant players in the gym and at times she was in full game physicality mode. So much so, that she inspired the opponents “to reciprocate the physical play” or get embarrassed in a room full of spectators and college coaches. Chandler controlled the glass, ran the floor extremely well for her position, and played with purpose, intensity, and toughness on the floor on every possession. She also impressed on the floor: Her offensive game was very good as usual in the paint and she even sprinkled in her improved outside shooting from the four position to go with her inside presence. Chandler showed exceptional passing skills at the Expo: she initiated offense and hit a cutting player at the rim and lead the break, drew a defender and delivered a dime to a teammate for the bucket. Chandler’s physicality, motor, ball IQ, versatility, and her ability to set the temperature in the room were impressive.
