South Carolina women's basketball: Ashlyn Watkins dunks over the nation's leading shot-blocker
Late in the first quarter, Sedona Prince blocked a layup attempt by Ashlyn Watkins. Watkins ran back on defense and came from behind to steal the ball from Madison Conner.
Watkins controlled the ball in the backcourt and by the time she crossed mid-court it was clear she was lining up the dunk.
Prince tried to chase Watkins down. At 6-7, she is the nation’s leading shot-blocker, and she almost caught Watkins, but she only brushed by her while she dunked.
