Fitzpatrick herself was a Division I college basketball player, competing for St. Joseph’s University and Rutgers. Similar to Curry, she led her team in 3-pointers made in both her sophomore and junior seasons.
Perhaps her and Steph can put some shots up together when the two get the chance to meet on Mar. 27, 2022 at Capital One Arena.
