WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

“What the 25-year-old brings to a team is a veteran and mature floor general who is one of the best passers in the country. She can score. She sees the floor. Has great handles. She seems to be in pretty good shape. She’s going to get stronger every day.”

~ The Athletic

“She is an elite passer with stellar court vision and can develop into a consistent shooter. Mangakahia struggled with turnovers and getting her health back to 100% this season, but both of those concerns are fixable issues. Any team would be lucky to have her on their bench.”

~ Sara Stanley, SB Nation
