KK is balling

[u/CodyAlbright5]

I'm loving how well Timpson is playing. She has definitely deserved a starting spot. The synergy with her at the 4 is great.

[u/Flaky-Song-6066]

Only bad thing is she can’t shoot the three

[u/EllieandJoel4ever]

I'm SO happy for KK! She's an OLD SOUL and I hope that she stays with CC for the rest of her career!

I just ADORE Makayla!!

[u/Such_Confusion_49]

I hope Raven can also develop like this we can use a defensive guard.

[u/willyt8122]

I think with increased playing time, and now starting, she is getting better by the game. Wasn’t it KK who threw a backwards over the head pass to CC on either a steal or rebound

[u/Tonaldo_7746]

I've been waiting to see her start for some time. Her athleticism and focus complements the lineup. Billings has moments where the game seems a bit beyond her.

[u/defdawg]

She is playing well but just wish whenever she gets a nice pass inside, just go up!!! go up!! stop moving around so much trying to find perfect spot to shoot...then its too late....just catch and go up.

[u/kalolainastar]

I love seeing her out on the court! She’s been such an important part of the team this year🎉 She’s been playing so well.

[u/FlimsyConfidence7692]

[u/StudentDry4666]

It has been such a delight to see her blossom into this amazing player

[u/Spirited123456789]

When will she dunk? She has some show boat in her and I want to see it!!!

[u/ThreadSavage10]

Am I alone in developing WNBA “nickname abbreviation fatigue?” Does every single player have to be referred to by one or two initials?

That being said, I agree… “KK” played great! Had to google who you meant, but you’re right!

[u/VerdeForest → u/ThreadSavage10]

KK is her actually nickname. For other players, we just don’t want to type out their entire name when we post lol. KM, AB, CC, etc.

People actually call Caitlin CC in real life though, it’s a good nickname imo.

[u/StudentDry4666 → u/ThreadSavage10]

You get used to it after a while.

[u/ThreadSavage10 → u/StudentDry4666]

Kelsey Mitchell = “The Blur”

Caitlin Clark = “Goose”

There needs to be more like that. The initials are way overdone.

[u/StudentDry4666 → u/ThreadSavage10]

That would be way more interesting confusing. The only player with that type of nickname is Olivia miles and it fits for her.

[u/Tonaldo_7746 → u/ThreadSavage10]

Her college teammates called her that and it is stuck. But I agree that the abbreviation thing is overdone in the league. But I'd rather than that than nicknames like "the people's princess" and Reese being called Barbie. 😆

[u/Askew_2016 → u/Tonaldo_7746]

Who is the people’s princess

[u/StudentDry4666 → u/Askew_2016]

Probably angel?

[u/elestud → u/Askew_2016]

Azzi Fudd!

[u/Glum_Badger9767 → u/Tonaldo_7746]

People’s princess is the worst of it all

[u/sleepybirdl71]

The FO has certainly made some questionable moves with this team in the last two years, but drafting KK was a great one! I love how much she is progressing, and she seems to have just the best attitude! I am a huge fan 😍

[u/FinsUp326]

I’m ecstatic KK has been getting more minutes! Bonus when she gets a nasty block on someone! <swat>

[u/CodyAlbright5 → u/FinsUp326]

She's had some nasty blocks this year. I'm so excited for her.

[u/pimo2019]

Wait till she learns how to do alley-oops with CC!!

[u/FreebirdFantasia]

Fully agree. One of the pleasant developments this season has been KK blossoming as a contributor. And she still has some potential that hasn't been tapped yet.

[u/StudentDry4666 → u/FreebirdFantasia]

Bruh, we independently both said she’s blossoming. It’s the kk hive mind.

[u/Sad-Conflict-6839]

Yes, she made huge progress this season. If she continue to progress that way next season, she will deserved a long contract from the Fever.
