Pauline Astier emerges as a key WNBA player for Liberty
Summary

Pauline Astier, an undrafted rookie signed by the Liberty in May, is gaining attention as she performs strongly in the WNBA. Currently shooting 60% from the field and 50% from three, Astier ranks second in rookie scoring. While she garnered a nickname and interest in memorabilia, she lacks a traditional rookie card. As her profile grows, especially with Sabrina Ionescu's absence from the lineup, Astier's significance to the team is likely to increase further this season.
