Geno Auriemma wasted no time setting high expectations for Dorka Juhász’s second season at UConn. Less than a week into summer workouts — which Juhász can’t even fully participate in while recovering from a fractured wrist that ended her first campaign in Storrs — the coach spoke in no uncertain terms about the graduate post player.
“I think Dorka’s going to have the kind of season where I’d be shocked if she wasn’t one of the top five or six players picked in the draft next year,” Auriemma said.
It’s a prediction that’s simultaneously bold and also relatively mundane.
