The Athletic published an article on "The Most Intriguing Women's College Basketball Players for 2020-21", and NU's own Lindsey Pulliam made the list:

7. Lindsey Pulliam, Northwestern

A high-volume shooter with nearly unlimited range and a steadfast mindset, Pulliam was the driving force in the Wildcats’ run to 26 wins last season, their most in school history, and a share of the Big Ten regular-season title. Pulliam averaged 18.8 points a game and surpassed the 20-point milestone 14 times, including 32 points against Michigan on Jan. 30. Only one major-conference player, Oklahoma State’s Vivian Grey, took more shots than the 523 attempted by Pulliam last season, and of those, 403 were 2-pointers, highlighting the success of her midrange game. Her only knock is her accuracy, which is a familiar refrain for someone who takes so many shots. She shot 38.6 percent last season, including 39.7 percent from inside the arc, though she increased her 3-point shooting from 18.2 percent as a sophomore to 35 percent as a junior.

Glad to see she is getting national props. She's a great player.

She is a great player and it's great to have her back, but, in my opinion, Veronica Burton is a better all around player and more important to the 'Cats ultimate success. Hopefully we have a couple of freshmen who can jump in at center and forward and fill what will be an obvious void.

Obviously, I was referring to the loss of Wolf and Scheid.
