Pac-12 has:

• 4 of the top 9
• 8 of the top 14
• 9 of the top 20

 

[j66kicker]

AAC has 3 of the top 15

AAC has 3 of the top 15

I believe that UConn women will have at least 4 of the top 25 and maybe up to 6 of the Top 25 by the end of the season.

Rhyne Howard is way too low. Kaila Charles...idk...I guess I’m just not sold on her being that high. She’s pretty good, don’t get me wrong. I just feel like she’s missing something. I feel the same way about Hebard. I also feel like Chelsea Dungee is better than 18th, but idk I can’t really argue with the players they have ranked in front of her. NaLyssa Smith should be on this list. I think Megan Walker will be higher at season’s end. I think this is her breakout year.

A three point shot. But Alyssa Thomas has done very well without being able to shoot the three pointer. Plus, Maryland has tons of three point shooters on the team.

I was poking around the birthdates and discovered Megan Walker is eligible for the next draft under current WNBA CBA guidelines.

The Ducks have 3 of the top 8. That’s impressive. They need to win this year; future years will be tougher for them.

The PAC-12 is looking very strong. Their fans should appreciate it. These things don’t last, though their coaching hires will help sustain their success. The ACC may be at a historical low. Their best teams are former Big East teams. The SEC and Big 12 were better a few years ago. The Big 10 is once again the weakest of the P5.

On a different note, other than Squeaks, are there any sophomores on the list?

Balogun (Louisville, transfer from GT) as well.

Now I recall the Jordan Brand game with Balogun, Smith, DeCosta, Austin, Liv, Squeaks, et al.

These next few WNBA drafts aren't loaded like the 2018 and 2019 drafts.

2020 and 2021 look weak. 2022 I think could be good depending on how last year's freshmen develop. Posts like Austin, Collier, Egbo, and ONO could all be really really good in a couple of years and have pro height/athleticism. Plus there is Williams, Howard, Nalyssa Smith, Mikesell and Bagolun who were all excellent as freshmen and could improve big time in the next couple of years.
