Been watching to see Joens but seeing Gustafson is playing very solid post and looks much improved over her start in the WNBA, even takes and makes a three occasionally. Megan and Griner are pretty much Joens' only teammates that will share the ball with her.

And her corgi has it's own Twitter account so that's pretty cool. ;)

And followed by Rex Chapman, one of my favorite Twitter follows.

The WNBA regular season is officially over, and Joens ended up having a decent year thanks mainly to the Mercury. IN 11 games with Dallas/LV, she mainly played in mop-up duty and scored 3 points in 20 total minutes. But in 8 games with Phoenix she scored 36 points in 107 minutes.

Out of all ISU WNBA players not named Bridget Carleton, her single-season totals were #2 in scoring (Frese 2000 -- 62 points) and #3 in minutes played (Frese 2000 -- 222 min, Lacey 2010 -- 144 min).

Saw a little of the game Sunday. If her teammates would pass it to her when she is opn on the 3 pt line,they would probably be happy with the results. Noticed Griner took her hair shorter.

I read awhile ago that she cut it while “in Russia” because the very cold temperatures there kept her braids from drying. Thus she was always cold. Kind of surprised she’s kept it short, but I like it.
Also. I noticed Ashley being in that no-passing zone, too.

Article from August 25 - Dinamo Sassari Press Conference - it certainly sounds like she's still joining the team, and might have already considering today's date:

The article is written in Italian, but I used Google Translate to get it in English - hopefully my link preserved the English language version!

Ashley is in Sardinia and Dinamo Sassari's first game is September 30. When I open the article in Google, it immediately gives me a Google Translate option to read it in English.
