Or trade the pick with whoever gets #2 and milk it for what it's worth. Cox is a hometown player and an excellent passer that should pair well with a Diggins/Arike backcourt. Sabrina is great and probably is a future Olympian and All-WNBA player, but Cox is also extremely unique as a prospect and is not far behind. I don't think there is post player in the league like her right now with her ability to pass and defend. In the last 2 weekends she put up: South Carolina-17 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists, 5 blocks Iowa-22 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals Oregon-21 points, 11 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 blocks, 2 steals Notre Dame-8 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks, 2 assists before going down with injury She was playing better than anyone in the country to finish the year and absolutely controlled the paint. Her best work was defensively--she shut down Hebard, and neither Turner/Shepard were effective going up against her. Her overall numbers aren't eye popping since Baylor had a deep roster and was rarely challenged, but eye test says she's right there with Sabrina. I think either would have been #1 overall this past season. The drop off after #2 next year is going to be massive for whoever gets stuck with the #3 and #4 picks. [/QUOTE]
