Especially when they take turns being hurt. Jefferson being hurt more has probably helped with Plum's development.

Good reason for the Lynx to keep her. They'll need somebody with upside when Brunson gets hurt or retires.

With the #12 pick, the Lynx could get that fancy Vadeeva people have been talking about. Howard and Vadeeva could help alleviate the assumed bleakness of Lynx future.

Yeah, I think that'd be a situation the Lynx would want to avoid.
I don't know that micro PG's are Reeve's thing after having Whalen as a PG for all of her head coaching career. It's not really Agler or Laimbeer's thing (does he really want Boyd?) LAllen is kinda micro, so maybe Laimbeer has changed his way, so I'll leave him out if this.
I came up with the theory that a player like Jefferson has to play extra hard to make up for being so small, and playing that hard all the time can take a toll on the body. That seems to be playing out this year, so I'd be leary about making a big gamble on her for next year. See how she does next season and then make a play for her if she's the kind of PG that fits your scheme.
To me, Jefferson seems like a better fit to ATL, and maybe Clarendon a better fit in Minnesota. So maybe a three team deal, but I'm not sure I could stomach paying a lot for Clarendon either. Clear the chalkboard.
