I wouldn't pick her two but I think most GMs would, especially Indiana.  The Fever have several good players but no superstar to build their team around.  Wilson would be the obvious choice here, but if she's not on the table then Deshields looks to be the next best bet.  She has the physical tools and potential to make a really good pro, but I think she's an incredibly risky pick when you look at her track record and lack of collegiate success.  Mitchell is a great player with her speed, quick release and scoring prowess, but if there's a position that Indiana is doing okay with, it's guard play.  Adding in Mitchell would be the equivalent to the Stars picking Plum when they already had Jefferson on board, and we saw how well that worked out for this.   Williams may be a smarter pick, but Williams has question marks since she hasn't shown the perimeter game needed to be a 2 or a 3, and she's too undersized as a 4 to make it as a PG in the pros.  She also isn't a particularly dynamic scorer which is what Indiana needs.  Great player, but I think she's a better Robin than a Batman and Indiana needs Batman.
