I think it's just that she has center skills and a forwards size. When she's up against true centers, she struggles.

Feurbach took her minutes. Deal taking McCabe’s minutes.
A coach who knows how to use her and doesn’t get rigid with earning their stripes nonsense will help.
Great quarter. Great time for Deal to look like a completely different player.
Said all along she just needed minutes and her confidence is showing this game. Nice 3 ball. Will drive to the hole. Mid range jumper and playing respectable defense. Really happy for her.
I know Addie is going to get praised for her offense in this game but:
He passing has been very good and her defense has been great. Snapping her head and getting above screens and redirecting. She finally looks comfortable.

Am I dreaming? Confident Addie and Hannah making TWO jump shots?!
Dude, those were the first ones she's hit in the last month!Get Stuelke out. She kills the offense because she has no mid range game.
A maturing Deal and a healthy Kylie add some dimensions to this team that will be fun to watch.
Agreed. If you get Emely healthy physically and mentally that adds even more depth and another weapon.
KF is a very good athlete and vital for team defense IMO. She is smothering their top offensive player.
QCHawks should be joining you.
Having a healthy Feurbach made a big difference tonight. She’s a pretty big upgrade in athleticism from Stremlow, just plays with such high intensity. If the light has turned on for Deal (please) that then makes us so much more versatile on offense vs McCabe. We know Jan will still struggle to give her minutes vs McCabe but the upside of her can be so much bigger for us.
I’m very happy for Deal. I truly hope this is a stepping stone game for her.
i’ve always said if she could just give us six or seven points a game and limit the turnovers I’d be thrilled.
Go Addie
Hays has been dreadful on offense and defense tonight.
