Got around the pay wall. I don't recall hearing that Nika was benched for the Tennessee game for "hard fouling in practice". She told Auriemma that Americans are soft. Reminds me so much of Sveta!

Smart players play to the way the game is reffed. So, for example on a lay up in America you only take 2.5 steps, not the Euro 3. Take 3 steps in the US, and it's a turnover, despite what you might believe.
Nika is learning that it's not a question of tough or soft, but just different. Hard for young people not to polarize everything.
Good to know the x-rays were fine.

Given the conditions in Croatia described in the article, no wonder she's tough as nails.
