With Arizona State women’s basketball in transition after coach Charli Turner Thorne retired, Natasha Adair's goal is to build from the ground up.
With Arizona State women's basketball beginning a new era, Adair is rebuilding the program from the ground up.
ASU saw some players transfer out and lost two commitments. Adair’s deep connections in basketball kept former Goodyear Millennium guard Trayanna Crisp on board with the coaching change. Former Delaware commit Journey Thompson decided to follow Adair and committed to ASU in May. “What I told her coming into the door, she was 10 points per game, I said, There’s no reason why that 10 can’t go to 20 easily,” Adair said. “Just giving her that permission to say, hey, you are an integral part of what we’re doing and to a certain degree, I want you to be a little selfish. You were more of a facilitator before, but now it’s your turn.” Along with Simmons, Adair is excited about what last season’s returning players can do in increased roles.
Maintaining a healthy group is key and Adair knows that the team that opens the season Nov. 7 against Northern Arizona will look far different from the team at the end of the season.
