Wasn’t really following Juju too closely until her elite 8 gm, was riding the CC wave more but after seeing that game & now seeing how she carries herself off the court, this girl is a ⭐️ & you can tell she’s all about hooping, not all the extra shit …. WCBB is in good hands next yr 🫡 props to PG for giving her some shine

@SupermanHopkins Ай бұрын

Wanna know why she's so successful at such a young age? When PG started dropping gems and knowledge on how to keep your focus and be successful at the next level, she didn't say a word. She took in all that free game and will use it to continually grow her empire into the stratosphere. This young lady clearly has a solid foundation and can dominate on and off the court for the foreseeable future. She might be our new Maya Moore!

@julianprospers Ай бұрын

@willawentertainment Ай бұрын

I like that she says she’s going to work on her efficiency. People say she reminds them of Maya Moore, who shot over 50% from the field, had a quick release, an inside and outside game and played both ends of the floor. I can see some similarities of a complete game. If she gets to 50%. 😳 But what she’s already done is amazing. Candace Parker was a monster on both ends in college and in the WNBA, as was Maya. Juju is on her way.

Interview was cool, but y’all missed A LOT! Allow the guest to story tell, y’all usually do it well! Hopefully my feedback is received positively and y’all use it to improve moving forward with Women athletes and others in general. - Where she’s from (Watts, CA) - Family background in the city - How she got her nickname - Didn’t touch on HS much - Why she chose USC - Getting shoes and more from Nike - Highlighting more signature games (conference or out of conference) - How she felt about the Final game (SC vs Iowa) - How has NIL helped or become a distraction - Funny moments during the season - Toughest games - Team moving from Pac-12 to playing Big 10 teams - What she’s excited for next season (team/personal accolades) - Who she can help y’all interview next (college players) And many more. Like I said, the interview was cool. But I know y’all can do better. Love the show. Hire me for team research 😂
