Unsure if anyone else has speculated this yet, but if not let me do so:
While Moriah can certainly stabilize PG & Evina is a nice long-term investment that can pay some immediate supporting contribution dividends, recent Lynx moves & the team they put on court Saturday appears to be sub-standard for real W competition.
Given that Napheesa is out on maternity leave this season, the W draft lottery is a 2-year composite exercise, & the next transcendental WBB prospect & explosive social media & marketing sensation is a Minneapolis area native on schedule to graduate in 2 years, I would say the Lynx may be tanking for Paige.
