“She’s really taking this season in her stride, she’s really building towards it,” Mercury wing Bec Allen said regarding Carrington following the game. “I think everyone that’s been around her has known that this is coming. I think her strength, the way that she plays hard. She crashed the boards, that was a problem for us against her today, boxing her out. I think she’s just one of those people who’s going to be a dog on the court. She’s having a great season.”
