Isn't every team a hardship ??
Saw a mention this may be a restructuring. Was Crystal on a 2nd contract?
I was reading this earlier and it looks like they’ll be able to sign replacement players for the start of the season.I also saw a mention that the Lynx had signed Napheesa to a long-term contract but had to keep her on the roster regardless of her status, so at most they'd have 11 players this year.
Roster Minnesota Lynx
Keep up to date the the Minnesota Lynx roster and check out the history of your favorite Lynx player!lynx.wnba.com
The WNBA gave Phoenix an exemption for Brittany Griner's position, so the Mercury can fill that roster spot, right?The Phoenix Mercury have waived Kiana Williams, Emma Cannon, Vivian Gray, and Jennie Simms.
The Washington Mystics have waived Linnae Harper and Stephanie Mavunga.
Doesn't Stanford get a little credit for Dodson????The WNBA gave Phoenix an exemption for Brittany Griner's position, so the Mercury can fill that roster spot, right?
So far, Maya Dodson and Kristine Anigwe, the former Cal forward who's bounced around a bit since graduating, are the beneficiaries of this. They're both on the roster. Interestingly, on the flip side of the comment I made about back-to-the-basket centers not making the rosters, Dodson and Anigwe can both move in the open court. They'll be asked to spell Tina Charles and Breezy Bri Turner, forwards who can get coast to coast, as well.
BTW, out of the 12 players currently listed on the Mercury roster, three each are from ND (Diggins-Smith, Turner, Dodson) and UConn (Taurasi, Charles, Nurse). Half the roster from two schools.
I hope so. Solid point guard. Great leadership. Unselfish.Have to believe Crystal catches on somewhere.
Yeah. I believe I read that part about them (Phoenix) having some type of an exemption where they could hold that spot for Brittany.The WNBA gave Phoenix an exemption for Brittany Griner's position, so the Mercury can fill that roster spot, right?

There are some "huh" cuts going on right now that epitomize how tough it is to make this league in terms of numbers, both roster spots and cap space. From everything I've read many cuts made on Tuesday and today could be precursors to players being resigned on Friday under different contracts that allow teams to keep players onboard. Stay tuned on that but the fact that players of this caliber are going through this is still a wowsa response.I hope so. Solid point guard. Great leadership. Unselfish.
Why not?Lindsay Allen waiver is a shocker to me, Henderson doesn't deserve a place in the 144
Sincerely, would you trade an Allen for an Henderson ?Why not?
All its going to take is for players like Stewie, and Jones to take a year off to rest, for the league to realize it is a bad deal.Gabby Williams is supposed to sign with Lyon Tony Parkers's ASVELles
In France, the playoffs go to early June..
With Prioritization rule, Gab will be unavailable for the WNBA,
I hope it will be her choice to go for France Natioal Team and to play for a french team domestic & EuroLeague
As I see it now, EuroLeague is a better line as an achievement than a W title
Probably, everyone in the world, except americans, agree with me, the W is full of talents for sure at the moment, we'll see in 2 years when players will have to make their choice ...
Allen has experience but her salary is higher. Henderson is faster, a better 3 point shooter, and higher upside in my opinion.Sincerely, would you trade an Allen for an Henderson ?
How do you know who deserves what? Do you attend the practices?Lindsay Allen waiver is a shocker to me, Henderson doesn't deserve a place in the 144
I don't think this is really a Henderson vs. Allen scenario.Allen has experience but her salary is higher. Henderson is faster, a better 3 point shooter, and higher upside in my opinion.
Yes lol Henderson can score allen is an offensive liability being a passer mostly .Sincerely, would you trade an Allen for an Henderson ?
You do realize they just started having a salary cap 2 years ago ? Teams are learning what and what not do o its still a trial phase for most GM's lol .Rosters are not made for talent but for salary cap, and that's where the WNBA is not good
And it will never be unless you let the reliable franchises do their thing
Yes, we could have years of dominance of a wealthy team
Isn't it time to grow ?
The no overseas rule is stupid, develop your own league
The league would just market the next big thing. No 1 player is bigger than the WNBA regardless who they are. We have seen DT sit out a year , CP sit out a year , Multiple big stars sitting out and the WNBA kept trucking.All its going to take is for players like Stewie, and Jones to take a year off to rest, for the league to realize it is a bad deal.
