[caption id="attachment_288786" align="aligncenter" width="2560"] (UK Athletics)[/caption] It's hard to believe Rhyne Howard is human once you watch clips such as this one. After her sophomore season at Kentucky saw Howard earn SEC Player of the Year honors, the rising junior from Cleveland, TN is arguably the most talented overall player in the college women's basketball scene heading into the 2020-21 season. If you need proof, check out how easy she made the game look at just 19 years old. https://twitter.com/swishcultures_/status/1269372688000118784 Notice the distance on some of these shots. Notice how many defenders stumble trying to stay in front of her. Notice the crispness in her game. Howard's bag of tricks is deeper than most. It's no wonder she finished second among Division I programs in scoring (23.4 ppg) while shooting over 43 percent from the floor. She was tabbed to nearly every All-American list and will do the same thing again this coming preseason. A historic season is in store for Howard and she knows it. https://twitter.com/howard_rhyne/status/1245831565344681986
