Morgan Tuck put on a happy face as she met with the media before Friday night's win over Phoenix, a victory that moved the Connecticut Sun into a tie for eighth place in the WNBA standings.
In the eight years Tuck played at Bolingbrook High School and UConn, her teams combined for a 259-14 record with eight of those losses coming in her freshman season of high school and college.
When she was getting the most playing time during her rookie season with the WNBA's Connecticut Sun, it was usually coming in a losing cause. In one of the most bizarre statistics you will find considering how much of a winner Tuck has been in her basketball career, the Sun are 6-17 when Tuck plays at least 10 minutes per game and 5-0 when she plays fewer than 10 minutes or didn't play at all.
