Moore, five former Huskies make U.S. team
With 2008 Olympians Seimone Augustus and Kara Lawson being cut, the U.S. playing in the upcoming FIBA World Championships will include UConn senior Maya Moore as well as former Huskies Sue Bird, Swin Cash, Tina Charles, Asjha Jones and Diana Taurasi.
Half of the 12-member roster either attended or are attending UConn with the rest of the team being Tamika Catchings, Sylvia Fowles, Jayne Appel, Candice Dupree, Angel McCoughtry and Lindsey Whalen.
A couple of observations. First, Whalen made a late charge to beat out Kara Lawson for the backup point guard spot behind Sue Bird. Second, the U.S. is obviously thinking about its inevitable matchup with the towering Australian frontcourt by keeping Appel in addition to Fowles, Charles and Jones.

The ridiculous Jayne Appel love fest continues.
She did Not deserve to be voted a WNBA All-Star while averaging 3 points and 3 rebounds per game.
Luckily she was Not voted to the All-WNBA teams.
So how could she be Considered to be 1 of the 12 players Representing USA?
What a joke!
You won't get any arguments from me on that subject.
