April 21
The San Antonio Silver Stars have signed Wendy Palmer.
The Connecticut Sun have signed Katie Endress.
The Indiana Fever have signed Annissa Hastings.
The San Antonio Silver Stars have signed Mfon Udoka.
How many players is that for SASS now? Are they going for a record or something?

Dan always liked having a lot of bodies in camp while he was in Cleveland but this is getting ridiculous. I guess it's safe to use the old cliche' "no job is safe"?

I think only Sue and Lauren's jobs are safe at this point...and Sue will miss camp completely, so she won't have to deal with the shuffle of bodies in and out.
I am excited for Hastings...camp fodder, but a good kid.

A new coach should bring in a bunch of people. Hughes doesn't owe any of the SASS players anything. Make 'em fight for their jobs.

As of now, without Williams or Hicks signing, they have 26 and no legit center.

You don't think Feenstra is legit?

OK, sorry. Bad word choice. I think they have a legit center, but is she a starter? She'll be OK if she's their only option (other centers listed on the roster include Bernadette Ngoyisa, Ugo Oha, and Nevriye Yilmaz), but I don't think she's "starter-worthy". I guess Kraayeveld could back her up, that would be a serviceable center rotation (except Cat really is more of a high-block player) but they'd never put the hurtin' on any of the other centers around.

Bernie is legit imo, she may no be a star but she's a strong center.

I don't think you can tell anything from 12 minutes spread over 7 games.

That was 3 yrs ago, she was 19 years old then. Bernie has been avg a double double almost every game in Italy this season, even in games vs WNBA players like Michelle Snow.

Exactly! She played 12 minutes! Objviouly the Lib coaching staff didn't think much of her.
I really don't know anything about her and it would be nice if she could come in and start or get some good minutes. Based solely on her WNBA experience, I can't see her making the team.
*Upon further inspection (reading her press release) Ngoyisa has a fighting chance of making the team. I will go eat my words now.

The Lib fans (or the ones that posted on the ESPN board back then) really liked Bernie.
