C'mon Emma....Annie and I think you sign the deal!! :)
And then Mabrey may take back her "trade me" demand....
Things get interestinglyer and interestinglyer.
I mean, there's only one premiere landing pad for Euros in the W, and it's obviously the Valkyries! Not sure what we're going to do during Eurobasket, but I guess we can always load up on 7 day player contracts... :p

WNBA Transaction of the Day:

Taylor Soule signed a Training Camp Contract with the Washington Mystics.

Soule was with the Lynx last year, right? If she hung with Coach Reeve, that's a good sign. And the Mystics have a bunch of knock-me-down and I-come-backers. Good luck, Taylor

They need the depth with Horston out for the season.
Nika Muhl is probably out for the season, as well, given her injury in the early part of the Euro season.

At first, I was wondering why a point guard, with Skylar Diggins-Smith and Muhl, then I remembered Muhl's injury and the fact the Sami Whitcomb has moved on to Phoenix. Guess there would be room if Seattle takes a lead or combo guard at #2.

Didn't realize Muhl will be out with injury. If she was healthy, do you think Seattle has enough faith in her to be their backup PG? She barely played at all as a rookie.

Conjecture at this poin. However, I think we'll possibly know the answer to that question when Seattle makes it' draft choice in April, particularly if Ms. Bueckers or Ms. Miles are available.

Where is my brain at today? If they do select either of those two, could make Wheeler's role with the team in doubt. Maybe just an insurance policy. Or maybe they see her playing at the 2 some.

Muhl is in WNBA purgatory. The league requires a team to carry 11 players, even if coach does not plan to use them.

The 11th player is often an inexpensive 1st yr draft pick.

On a well managed team, that 11th player is nurtured in hope they can become a future contributor.

On a poorly run team that 11th spot just rots like dead wood.

Nika like Lou Lopez-Senechal further complicates things by being injured.

Only time will tell for both, if there is a happy end. I'm pulling for both, two of my favs.

I just went back to the WNBA transaction site and saw the deal is a "training camp contract," so this could very much be a "let's see what happens" deal...

Is Lou injured again? She played a full season in the W and has been playing in Europe at least up till last week.
