Makes sense now. Didn’t know about Ndour. Wonder if Lou could cost Karlie her job. Karlie has been playing very well in Europe.

I sure hope not. That would be brutal. Playing together would be great for them, one of them costing the other her job would be not so good.

The Hartford Courant just reported that the Chicago Sky have traded KLS and a 2021 first round draft pick to the Dallas Wings for Azura Stevens!
I added the exclamation point because I consider that to be quite surprising.
It appears to imply that both teams consider Lou to be a lesser player than Azura, which you wouldn't expect given their relative productivity at UConn.
This means that Lou and Karlie will be teammates, assuming that Karlie makes the final Dallas roster. It also means that Lou will be receiving passes from Moriah once again.

Wow traded after just one season? Seems a little quick.

Right? Wasn't it the Chicago sky coach James Wade that said they drafted her to play behind and learn from Quigley for a few seasons?

After Lou’s mom criticized Wade On Twitter last September, this is probably for the best. Lou gets a fresh start in Dallas.

Let's hope they make better use of her skillset than Chicago using her to keep a seat warm.
Think Dallas got the best of that deal, with all the bad players they had last year, no Liz or Skylar and Stevens was a bench player. Azura still wants to be like EDD and Stewie, but unlike both of them she doesn't want to mix it up inside.

Let’s hope coach Alger doesn’t have a Twitter account
Apparently one of the Chicago reporters just spoke to Katie at the event she is at in Chicago for the all star weekend, and she apparently just found out she was traded by the reporter, she didn’t even know, it said she was surprised, because the last she heard she was staying in Chicago.

True, the coach didnt even contact her to tell her she was traded. Guy us a real Sh_t Head, IMO.

Coach Agler knows the Sam Fam well. He had Karlie in LA and Dallas and flew to Spain this winter to watch her play. Could Karlie be cut now, possibly. Hope not.

KLS will be playing with Arike and probably Cox this summer. That's quite a reunion for them as they started for their U16 and U17 teams together.
Dallas is going super young. Its kind of exciting. Hopefully Moriah Jefferson can get healthy and have a productive season. Imagine trying to contain her and Arike and then not being able to say off of KLS. They also got rid of Glory, so maybe they might get another big with the later first round draft picks.

That was just something he said on the fly and then got called out on it. Then he muttered something about the NBA Model....

#4 pick and she was not a "fit" I don't get it. How do you just draft someone and they did not fit into the offense...puzzling.
