Well, re: the Connecticut Sun, I think just about all of us posters here are going to often see a UConn alumni front-court with Tina Charles and Olivia Nelson-Ododa.

As we saw other front courters go here and there, it started making sense that Tina could end up back in eastern Connecticut.
This iteration of the Connecticut Sun -- like many other WNBA teams -- will probably only last one year, but TC will get a chance to have a big year.

It will be really interesting to see if the Sun go after any more big names -- yes, I'm still thinking Emma Meesemman -- or it they fill out the roster with medium- or lesser-known players, along with whomever the draft brings in. Think Charles, Natasha Cloud and Marina Mabrey are going to need some help or their arms are gonna fall off! Stay tuned.

I definitely hope Meesseman decides to come join her Belgian team coach. I've always really enjoyed her game.

I've also been thinking through different permutations of the draft to think about who the Sun might be able to get with the 8th pick—and who fits best with who they have remaining. I don't think Soni Citron will fall that far. Aneesah Morrow? Maddy Westbeld? Azzi Fudd (if she decides to leave school)?

Just checking but have the Valkeries forgotten that signing free agents and making trades have started?

They don't really have anyone to trade and their draft picks are more valuable anyway. Free agents usually want to go to a winner and at this time Vals are not a winner. They really need to make sure they have a shot at a franchise player in the next two drafts.

They won’t be a title contender but that isn’t a bad trio to build around. Every team will look markedly different this year besides Minnesota. What a wild offseason
