As Epps, Akhator await WNBA fate, Kentucky assistant coach has been go-to resource

Kentucky’s seniors didn’t have to spend a lot of time learning about the WNBA.

They only had to walk upstairs and enter an office.

“Lin Dunn’s about all you need to know to learn everything you need to know,” UK guard Makayla Epps said of the first-year Cats assistant, a Hall of Fame coach with more than 15 years of professional experience.

So instead of stressing during the season about their futures, Epps and fellow senior Evelyn Akhator could ask WNBA questions any time they had them.

“We’d talk about what’s different in college and pros, the faster game, the 24-second clock, how we travel,” said Dunn about some of the questions she fielded during UK’s season.
