Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 3620313, member: 2117"] It seems like a very statistics based list and throwing in some rookies in random spots. Ionescu could easily be ranked as high as #3 or 4 depending on how good you think she'll be as a rookie, or left off completely since she hasn't proven anything at the WNBA level. Odds are she'll likely end up being the centerpiece of NYL from day 1 and rises much higher than 11th place. McCowan's overall stats aren't eye popping, but she played limited minutes early last year before blossoming into a dominant post the 2nd half of the season. After the All Star break she was playing far better than players like Mitchell, Nurse and Atkins. And players like Vivians, Young and Turner I think will be long term better players than more proven commodities like Tiff Mitchell and Alisha Gray, neither of whom I see taking on more prominent roles as their career develops. Hard to accurately assess right now, but I think we'll have a clearer picture after this season. The talent level among young players is at an all time high IMO with loaded 2018, 2019 and a top heavy 2020 class that has a couple of bonafide studs and several other intriguing prospects who could make their mark.
