DUPREE PLAYER PAGEKamesha Hariston, a rookie for the Connecticut Sun, has seen less action then her former
teammate in her young professional career. Hariston saw action in 17 games this past season averaging close to 9 mintues per contest. She did have one of her best games, when she faced Dupree's Sky team on 5/31, scoring career highs in points (9), field goals made (3), field goals attempted (7), defensive rebounds (5), total rebounds (7) and minutes (29.) Hariston must continue to improve to earn minutes on an experienced team who has been a perennial playoff contender during the past few years.
