When asked about her fast start she goes on to say : 

“ I didn’t realize I had 20 points in the first half, I feel like I have something to prove this year; I need to help my team win while keeping my stats consistent.  I feel like the earlier on I can score and separate my team from the other team, I can be less selfish later in the game and help everybody get theirs.”
