The first two games of the WNBA season offer a stark dichotomy of what this Los Angeles Sparks team can look like. A rousing opener in which the Sparks easily fended off one of their top rivals was followed by an equally unspectacular performance in game two, on a night when the team consistently seemed a step slow.
One player whose effort didn’t seem to waver throughout either game was Kristine Anigwe. Even as she played through dramatically different time-and-score situations, Anigwe consistently brought energy to the court as the first Sparks big off the bench.
