Looking good. That one looked like it almost got wedged between the rim and the backboard...and then somehow rolled in. That's when you know it's your night!

Has Kat ever gotten a serious look from the WNBA? Pre season is a joke, you have about 10 minutes to make an impression before you get cut. I'm sure most of the decisions are made before any of the players even report. There are some seriously unproductive players littering the end of the benches for WNBA teams, I'm certain there are better players all over the world who can't seem to get their foot in the door.

Thanks for the video....
Reminds me of the 31 point game Tudor had in the uo game some years ago that we won at Gill.
Prettiest rainbow 3 point shot I have ever personally seen in the men's or women's game, and as SR says, super quick release.
Wish she had been able to score the ~30 or so points more needed to get to the 1000 point scorer list, but if wishes were fishes.....
Go Beavers!

Looks like she changed her shot some for the pro game. Not nearly as high of an arc.

Thanks for the video.... Reminds me of the 31 point game Tudor had in the uo game some years ago that Go Beavers! The truth is actually better. When does that happen? Tudor torched the Ducks for 34 points at Gill as a sophomore in January 2018 during a memorable OSU win. I believe she hit seven threes in that game. |

I have been watching most of her games. They are usually played at 2:30 or 3:30 AM PST. They are sometimes difficult to watch. The players on her team have horrible court vision and very often do not see her when she is wide open. She seems to be the best athlete on her team. In this game they pulled her out early or she might have hit 40. The team was up by 15 and she seemed to hav a little limp. Coach is a moron. He put in his reserves too early and the other team made a run and was within 2 before he had to put some of his starters back in. The lower end reserves are very young often high school age. They have a huge roster filled with future developmental players who seldom see action.
NWhoopfan I think Kat missed her WNBA window. Expecially since shooters rely on other players getting them the ball. This is why her SR season was so important. She never really had a good last season which would have gotten her at least a camp invite. In the WNBA image is far more important than substance. Goodman really got screwed over when she did not go to a team that could have used her skills That would have been the Aces who needed a 3 point shooter. She was also a good catch and shoot player with a pretty good off the ball game and point guard skills. In the WNBA luck is often more important than skill.

I usually do my own fact checking, but I couldn't find the WBB Media Guide on the "new and improved" web site at the time I was writing that. Seeing that I need to control my "senior moments" I did go find it: (page 44 shows your memory is much better than mine) osubeavers.com/documents/2021/10/4/Oregon_State_WBB_2021_22_Media_Guide.pdf(For the record, Kat also scored 972 career points, so she only needed 28 more points.....too bad she couldn't get one more game against uo in......  osubeavers.com/sports/womens-basketball/roster/kat-tudor/6729Go Beavers! |

They're calling her a rock star Down Under. Shot 77% in that game where she made the 10 threes the other night.
Unreal.

If she can keep moving her way up in the NBL, maybe she will get a chance from a WNBA team. She's got solid size, always defended pretty well, made minimal mistakes, and was always an elite shooter with a high IQ.
I think we've missed having a catch-and-shoot player like her on the wing in recent seasons.

Did anyone else notice that the announcers seemed very underwhelmed by her performance, very little enthusiasm as her numbers grew I thought.

Kat was my daughter's favorite OSU WBB Player. We sit courtside and we used to hear Kat swear under her breath as she ran back down the court if she missed a shot, or, on defense her player scored against Kat. Kat was a incredible competitor, and a fantastic defender. Definitely did not get enough credit for her defense.
So happy for Kat.

The odds are not good, but players like Whitcomb and Gardner have shown the window can stay open for a LONG time. |
