The ASSOCIATED PRESS reports, "whether it's shooting a 3, driving to the basket, or just scoring inside, the U.S. women's basketball post players have an incredible amount of versatility in their games. Gone are the days when post players would score only in the paint. This talented group can score anywhere on the court. 'One through five, this might be the most versatile post team in a long time,' center Lisa Leslie said. 'Players who can shoot from the outside and the inside. Everyone is going to have an opportunity. It's like an orchestra, everyone plays a different instrument and at some point you will have a solo.' Leslie may be the very reason that some of her young teammates are so versatile.”
