‘We’re playing against Allen Iverson’: UConn will have hands full with Arizona’s Aari McDonald

UConn women’s basketball has its eye on a 12th trip to the national championship game but standing between the Huskies and the chance to play for another trophy is Arizona’s 5-foot-6 fifth-year senior guard, Aari McDonald. A is a problem on both ends of the court, McDonald is intense, lightening quick, a matchup nightmare, and a pest on defense.

“I think she’s a phenomenal player. She’s a tremendous individual and I don’t know that there’s anything that any one team — or any one player I should say — has been able to do to completely stop her from from doing what she wants to do,” head coach Geno Auriemma said.
