Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 2740549, member: 2117"] To play devil’s advocate, the same could be said about Kia Nurse who has been a much better offensive pro than I expected. But to answer the original question—this is hands down the deepest draft in years. We’ve seen players like Nurse and Atkins shine right away when they weren’t expected to. The top 2 picks are big standout talents, and at 3 you had a wild card player in Deshields who looks a lot better than she did at Tennessee. Deeper in the draft you have some really good bigs in Vadeeva, Gülich, and Stevens who should all improve with time, Williams has huge upside and will improve with time. Vivians is still adjusting but could be a great scorer too. Brown is buried on a deep Connecticut roster but has all the tools to be a very good pro player, and Canada appears to be next in line at Seattle. Great draft all around. 2019 should have another deep class as well, especially loaded with forwards and posts. [/QUOTE]
