COLUMBIA, MO. • Jordan Roundtree glances at a wrist from time to time while going through warmups Thursday night, shortly before the Missouri women’s basketball team tips off against No. 18 Texas A&M.
The words are stacked on top of one another, written on the inside of the gray pre-wrap encircling the junior guard’s left wrist. On the outside, a cross is drawn. The same three words and cross appeared on the tape Sunday, during MU’s 69-46 win over Vanderbilt.
They’re there to remind Roundtree, a Kirkwood High School product, of what she needs to do when she takes the court.
