Illini women doubled up UIS 88-44 in an exhibition tonight.

Not much to take from it except that Alves is going to be a big contributor this year. Bourrage's talent is obvious, but seems like it may take a while for her to put it together.

It occurred to me that tonight's second unit (Guyton, Bourrage, Webber, Alves, Vasconcelos) would destroy any Illini women's team between the Grentz and Green eras.

I like that Bourrage doesn't force anything.

Loved one play where she blocked a shot, got the ball and drove the length of the court for a layup.

And yes, the top-ten players is quite a group.

The second unit kinda outplayed the starters tonight.

Outlier, for sure. But Guyton, Webber, and Alves are really good players.
