Video of Breanna Stewart

USA Basketball posted a 4-minute video interview with UConn incoming freshman Breanna Stewart which I thought some of you might want to check out. As a side note, part of the interview had to do with how Stewart got her 6-10 nickname. Stewart said she couldn't recall where it originated but at one of the training camps I went to, I recall UConn rising sophomore Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis taking credit for coming up with the moniker because Stewart had a wingspan of 6-10. As the video will reveal, Stewart's wingspan is now 7-1.

As for USA Basketball, the U-17 team is expected to be announced in the morning (probably around 10:30 Eastern time). The U-18 team should be announced Monday morning.

Jim, how many seasons do you think Breanna has a legitimate chance at being an All-American at UConn? Despite her success with USA Basketball, I think Breanna needs to pack on some muscle to be able to remain close to the hoop to block shots and rebound. Is "Stewie" going to stick with her at UConn or would she prefer to be named something else in blogs? Thanks.
