—Dana Evans says her experience at Louisville fully prepared her for life in the WNBA.
“I really think Louisville has prepared me for this moment, in so many different ways,” Evans said Wednesday during the Wings’ 2021 Media Day. “I’ve been prepared, and I’ve been just trying to enjoy the game and have fun, and just soak it in - because this is a dream come true, and I’m playing the game that I love.”
Evans says that one aspect that Louisville has prepared her for is the increased physicality at the next level. She specifically credits sports performance coach Kaitlynn Jones for preparing her in the weight room, and so far in training camp, the only physical aspect she believes needs to improve upon is fighting through screens.
“I feel like I’m able to take a bump, get to where I want to get to,” she said. “On the defensive side as well, I can kind of bug them and get to where I need to get to as well. I would say it’s translated, pretty good for me so far.”
