Lindsey Harding is retired. Mistie Bass and DeWanna Bonner are pregnant and will not be playing this season. Mistie is most likely not going to return. Kayla George needs to be added at center and Kelsey Bone moved to PF. Also not signed are Xargay and Petrovic.

Thanks for doing this. I know it is a lot of work.

Kayla George is more of a PF then Bone is tbh

Connecticut's final roster

Jasmine Thomas/Rachel Banham
Alex Bentley/Courtney Williams/Shekinna Stricklen
Alyssa Thomas/Reshanda Gray
Jonquel Jones/Morgan Tuck
Lynetta Kizer/*8th Draft Pick*/Chiney Ogwumike(out with injury)

8th draft pick will most likely be a backup center for Lynetta Kizer. Perhaps Mercedes Russell or Brionna Jones if she's available.

The Sun are going 11 deep with Ogwumike counting towards the roster.

None of the training camp players have much of a chance (Kelly Faris, Kayla Pedersen, Danielle Adams, Jennifer Hamson). I would rather keep Kelly Faris over Shekinna Stricklen because at least Kelly can play both guard positions if needed. On the other hand, while Stricklen isn't the best option, she can play shooting guard and small forward if needed. Stricklen is under contract so I doubt she gets cut.

I think a rotation of Thomas/Banham/Bentley/Williams is a bit thin especially if Banham isn't 100%. That's why they should keep Faris instead and get rid of Stricklen.

I don't know if the Sun draft a guard 8th. They need a fill in for Ogwumike while she's out.

Pedersen, Adams and Hamson will be competing with the 8th pick in the draft for the final roster spot. Pedersen is garbage. Adams is slow and defensless but can at least score from pretty much anywhere on the floor. I haven't seen her playing overseas so I don't know if she is better conditioned now. Hamson is kind of an unknown but its not like she's lighting it up in Australia and if I recall, she was flimsy and clumsy and useless in LA.

By not suspending Ogwumike until she's healthy enough to return is throwing a wrench into the roster because she's going to be taking up the 12th roster spot.

Thanks for all the work ...

Looking at it, I see

1. San Antonio Stars Kelsey Plum 5’8 G Washington
2. Chicago Sky Diamond DeShields 6’1 G Tennessee
3. Dallas Wings Alaina Coates 6’4 C South Carolina
4. Dallas Wings Kelsey Mitchell 5’8 G Ohio State
5. San Antonio Stars Alexis Jones 5’9 G Baylor

as pretty solid picks, but there are questions about the first three. In fact, it would seem likely that at least one of those three will not turn out to be considered worthy of the slot.

I'm more convinced Mitchell and Jones will have solid careers, but DeShields has the highest ceiling. Can Plum be the second iteration of Becky Hammon? If so, there's a star, but what are the odds of that happening?

After that, there will of course be a few players who emerge at the WNBA level, but it's really hard to pick out who they might be. Brionna Jones, maybe, or Tori Jankoska maybe, or whoever ...

Bottom line: Not many immediate impact players, it doesn't appear.

If Russell comes out she will go well before #12. Size is size and someone will want to give her a shot. I suspect she would go by #5 - #6 at the latest.

Why are we assuming Mitchell is coming out? What are we basing this off of? Had there been any indication that she is remotely interested in leaving a year early?

Harding retired from the WNBA.
Bass is pregnant and will miss the season.
Bonner is pregnant and will miss the season.

First I think Connecticut need to establish an identity... Are they going to play small ball or big girl basketball... If they go play small and quick they should draft a guard. You can always put Alyssa Thomas at the 4 at times during the game... I think this should be their final roster....

Guards
Rachel Banham
Alex Bentley
Tori Jankoska
Alexis Peterson
Jasmine Thomas
Courtney Williams

Forwards
Danielle Adams
Reshanda Gray
Jonquel Jones
Lynetta Kizer
Chiney Ogwumike (suspended)
Shekinna Stricklen
Alyssa Thomas
