“Mamba Mentality” is a phrase coined by the late Kobe Bryant, which means to be your best possible version.
In her recent interview, Hunt talked about her expectations from his partner in the future. “I’m definitely looking for that number one draft pick,” she said.

Identifying talent that other teams might grade differently is essential to a successful draft,” Hunt added.
