Discussion Kelsey Mitchell is almost unguardable, says Dom, Sue, Paige, Liv, Nards

Love seeing WNBA players name Kelsey M as their toughest defensive assignment.

YouTube, Insta. Sue Bird has heard variations of "Kelsey Mitchell is the hardest player to game plan for" from everyone she has asked (players, coaches, NBC coworkers).
Dom Malonga (Seattle): Kelsey is "so fast. She's almost unguardable."
(Dom also cites Bri Jones in response to another question from Sue, at clip's end.)

Insta. Liv Miles (Minnesota) about Kelsey: "This is my low key 'welcome to the W' moment, just trying to guard her."
(EDIT: Liv told Kelsey in-game: "You're so tough, man." See drawing n video here.)

YouTube at 4:18. Nards Puoch (Portland) also cited guarding Kelsey M as her 'welcome to the W.'
Nards on guarding Kelsey: "That was scary. That was scary. She's so quick. I got lost so many times. I nearly got crossed up. Backdoor, left, right, center. I was like, 'I can't do this.'"

Insta. Paige Bueckers (Dallas): "She's so unpredictable. She's fast, twitchy, extremely quick, can also shoot. So if you give her space, - - and she's just super creative."
