Arguably one of the biggest conversations during the start of this WNBA season has been regarding Azzi Fudd’s role on the Wings, where she was drafted first overall last month. New Dallas coach Jose Fernandez has opted for Fudd to come off the bench in all six games she’s played in instead of putting her in the starting lineup. This decision has sparked debate across the league and with fans.
After each game, Fernandez has been asked about a timeline regarding Fudd starting for the Wings this season, as he has hinted that she will be in the starting five at some point. However, the coach still won’t offer an idea of when she could elevate her role on the team.
