Dyaisha Fair is a HOOPER, and fans of the senior guard believe that more people should be talking about her accomplishments. Fair is now fifth all-time on the NCAA scoring list after surpassing Brittney Griner on Sunday.
Remember when I started saying earlier this season that other phenomenal players in women’s basketball deserve to be recognized beside Caitlin Clark, like JuJu Watkins, Lauryn Taylor and Alissa Pili? That’s no slight to Clark — she’s a DAWG — but women’s hoops fans are growing increasingly frustrated with the lack of coverage and are clamoring for players like Dyaisha Fair to get their flowers, too.
After bypassing Griner, even the Syracuse Women’s basketball team and Fair had to tweet a reminder to celebrate the accomplishment.
