Maya wants to spend more time at the line
STORRS (The New Haven Register) — Maya Moore will, on occasion, allow those outside of her circle to peak into her basketball soul, offer a snippet of the competitive fires that burn so fiercely.
One such occasion came on the night when Moore moved into 10th place on UConn’s career scoring list. Rather than pondering not only the achievement but rapid pace in which she ascended into such select company, she was more concerned with the fact that she had more turnovers than assists.
So it’s easy to imagine her reaction when she was told earlier this week that heading into Tuesday’s games, there were 40 players in the Big East who have been to the free-throw line more than she has this season.
Even as she is in the midst of a season which could lead to Moore being named the consensus national player of the year for the second straight campaign, Moore is not content to maintain the status quo when it comes to her basketball development.
