Walker lacks the quickness, physicality and handle to contribute defensively. During her 3 years in the W her rebounding total has fallen each year and her turnover total has risen. While she has a tremendous ability as a spot up shooter she cannot create her own shot.

Given the athletic nature of front court players in the professional game she just can't body up and is consistently beaten off the dribble.

As you correctly pointed out she was drafted based upon her ability to shoot from range.  Notwithstanding recent performance over her 3 year "career" she hits under 25% from three land, 32% from two land and under 66% from the free throw line.  Underwhelming for a player drafted for shooting prowess.

Roster decisions at the end of the bench I think are based on salary considerations.  I'm always surprised by some of the roster decisions on the last three spots on the bench. I guess it didn't hurt that Megan attended Uconn and had a solid career there.
