Kelsey Plum gave an amazingly blunt NSFW response about Courtney Williams dropping buckets on her
After a tough loss Wednesday, Las Vegas Aces star Kelsey Plum didn’t sugarcoat how hard it was to watch Minnesota Lynx guard Courtney Williams drop bucket after bucket on her.
Defensively, the Aces have been inconsistent for most of the season. Teams usually don’t have enough in their toolbox to go toe-to-toe with Las Vegas, so it’s usually never a problem. But, the Lynx are different.
They’re fantastic on both sides of the floor and have multiple scoring options, including Courtney Williams, whose midrange game is nearly automatic. So, it’s not shocking that Courtney put Kelsey in the blender all night — to the tune of 22 points, 10 assists and 7 rebounds on 62 percent shooting — and Kelsey openly admitted it. Here’s what she told the media postgame about guarding Williams:
“I’m a big Courtney Williams fan. I’ve watched her [during] her entire career…Obviously, she’s playing the highest level of basketball right now…she cooked me tonight.”
“There’s really not much to say…when you get your [expletive] kicked, you gotta give the other people credit.”
Kelsey Plum on defending Courtney Williams: "She cooked me… There's really not much to say."
"She had it tonight, and when you get your ass kicked, you gotta give the other people credit."
