2019 WNBA Draft

[Blueballer]

Poor Gustafson

What's the knock on her? Slow?

 

[nwhoopfan]

Gustafson finally!

 

[MilfordHusky]

What's the knock on her? Slow?

Yeah, unathletic.

 

[psconn]

Sheppard and Collier together in Minn, that might be odd at first.

Probably not. Jessica is the least offensive ND player in my memory. Seems like a really good person.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Gulich traded to Atlanta for the rights to Brianna Turner.

 

[Vowelguy]

ATL Turner traded for PHX Gulich

 

[DeeHusky]

From a different perspective I could understand why Gustafson hasn't been picked though. Teams not believing in her because she's a shorter 5. The 5s in the W are 6'6, 6'7, 6'8, she's 6'3. And she doesn't have a faceup game.

 

[Britt87]

Another Sun pick that responded like she was just given a shorter jail sentence than she expected.

ROTF, you know she wanted to play in LA lol.

 

[MSGRET]

Shocked on the Turner trade.

 

[JellyBean]

Thank you, Dallas!! Megan is going to be a beast!! Her footwork, midrange game, and her nose for the basketball makes her a solid pick for any team. Now it just comes down to her having that confidence to be Great on Dallas. She is a hard worker.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Gulich traded to Atlanta for the rights to Brianna Turner.

Interesting.

 

[DeeHusky]

On one more note about Gustafson, it's still weird that the NPOY is picked that low

 

[MSGRET]

Probably not. Jessica is the least offensive ND player in my memory. Seems like a really good person.

Not the person but the team she came from.

 

[Blueballer]

Shocked on the Turner trade.

Me too. Watching Gulich last year I thought she had nice skills. Wonder if there is a language barrier or other chemistry issue.

 

[delawarehusky]

good grief. getting ads for ND on the Boneyard.

 

[Britt87]

Probably too busy at her jig class.

Stop it!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Me too. Watching Gulich last year I thought she had nice skills. Wonder if there is a language barrier or other chemistry issue.

Definitely no language barrier. Her English is fine.


edited--and based on following her at OSU I'd be shocked if there was a chemistry problem with her.

Obviously Griner is going to play the majority of the minutes in the post for Phoenix. It just didn't seem like they gave her much of a chance, her minutes were really limited and pretty much non-existent in the playoffs.

 

[Adios]

WNBA jerseys have 3 ads on them nowadays? Dayum.

 

[DeeHusky]

I hope Laimbeer trades Moriah or Plum, I want to see her start! In my mind, Mo's upside is much better than Plum. She is nobody's bench PG.

 

[Geesworld]

Minnesota Lynx Getting a another Husky. I'm in heaven.
Pheesa, you always did look good in Blue.

 

[Dokey]

And the reigning NPOY...unbelievable.

6'3"center in a league of giant centers.

 

[willtalk]

Perhaps with the coach. I thought she had a really quick hook with respect to Gulish.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Dillard to Minnesota. I like what they're doing this draft. They have a bunch of aging veterans and not many young up and coming players. Looks like they might be getting a decent start on rebuilding.


edited--they got Heideman from Marquette in the 2nd round as well, they had a bunch of picks

 

[Argonaut]

I think this goes to prove what many were saying with their confusion on the awards and who votes for them. Obviously coaches are looking at her a lot differently than the media.

Or maybe that crazy Geno was just stirring the pot...

 

[Dokey]

Sky is going to be a fun team to watch with Lou and Gabby. I will add their games to Seattle's in my must watch column.
