I thought you could feel her unhappiness last year. Seemed evident at times.

Meighan Simmons is falling. Only player not drafted of the 12 that were invited to attend.
 
Yikes...wonder why they even invited her if she wasn't considered a first round choice?
 
Obviously there are aspects of Simmons' game that GM's don't like. I'll posit a silly theory and say that the Mercury will take Simmons in the 2nd round.
 
Now I just have to remember that the Sun are in Connecticut instead of Phoenix

I agree. But maybe it will be motivation for her.

Bussie to MN is a good pick. She really played well at the end of the year.
 
Was anyone as impressed as I was with Natalie Achonwa's poise and charm? She is very well-spoken -- a credit to her family and her school.

Didn't this happen a couple of years ago, I think maybe Kelly Mazzante?

If I did the math correctly, Connecticut, Duke and Notre Dame account for half the first round.

I had the volume off.... but yes I was impressed with Achonwa ;)

I have been keeping track of Tianna's season on Sopron with Kelly. She has played tremendously well.
 
Whaaa? I missed that! Stef and Bria together? Awesome!

I like the Phoenix pick of Bias. She always played Baylor tough and should be a good fit.
 
ETT - me too - feel a little uncomfortable on that score, but the player who surprised me the most was Kayla McBride - like Kelly, she has such a game face when playing, and when she was walking up to the stage, I really didn't recognize her at first.
All the women are looking very good tonight!
 
I like Coach Mike T. He may not have gotten the Sun a title, but they were always in the hunt. He's made some good personnel moved. The Mystics too often selected overrated ACC players. I think Asjha was their only UConn pick and they traded her. They are now building a winning culture. Stef, Bria, and Kara are very nice additions. I can now go to their games and cheer for the home team, though maybe not against Minnesota. That will feel odd. :)

Though I really dislike ND, I'm ok with Achonwa and probably also McBride. I got to see Kayla in person in Nashville and was very impressed with her handle and shot. Possibly the best dribbler I saw this year--very quick and low.

Don't forget one Tiffany Hayes in Atlanta. She's a major contributor for them.

The Connecticut Sun will have some good players and people. They will get to see how the State supports WBB.
