Kizer has always bounced back and forth between C & PF her whole career. No surprise. Moore could always act as that 5th post option if Reeve wants to go guard heavy.
PG: Whalen/Robinson/Jones
SG: Augustus/Wagner
SF: Moore/Wright/Zandalasini
PF: Brunson/Barta
C: Fowles/Kizer |
I kinda like this roster you’ve come up with, except probably not Barta.
It sounds like the Lynx might have to start out with 11 for about a month, so maybe bring back Wagner at that time.

She means that they went against a live defense. In scrimmage form

Maybe that will save me from having to learn how to pronounce her name. It's "Grimace" when I say it to myself.

yeah me too, though Queenie told us last year how to, as Shades has here. Still it was Grimace. What were those parents thinking? I'm imagining the old Tulsa announcer trying to say it...

Well that's interesting ....
http://www.startribune.com/lynetta-kizer-appreciates-getting-a-shot-playing-for-lynx/481842631/
Lynx sign forward
The Lynx signed 6-3 forward Jillian Alleyne, a second-round pick by Phoenix
in 2016. Alleyne averaged 17.9 points and 14.3 rebounds as a senior at
Oregon, but that season was cut short because of a torn knee ligament that
also cost her the 2016 season. She was waived by New Your on Thursday.

NY has sort of crowded post position so getting cut may not say that much about Alleyne. And who know, maybe Russell was killin it in camp so NY decided to she was the better rookie post.

Interesting. wonder if she’ll be able to impress Reeve enough to make the team.

I certainly wouldn't expect Alleyne to make the roster, but interesting that she's been signed just as Miyem's missed Schio's last three games in the Italian playoffs. Also, Fagbenle played in the preseason game yesterday despite them saying that she was coming into camp with an injury. All seems a little bit confused among the backup posts in Minnesota at the minute. |

When Youngblood transcribed his interview audio recording for his article, I wonder if he thought “Endy” sounded like “Temi”.

Maybe Miyem is injured and may not show and Alleyne is basically taking her spot in camp?

Temi Fagbenle Is Ready To Show Off Her Progress
http://lynx.wnba.com/news/temi-fagbenle-is-ready-to-show-off-her-progress/
Quote: |
A few days after her arrival to Lynx training camp straight off of winning the Polish League’s Finals MVP, Fagbenle’s improvement has caught coach Cheryl Reeve’s eye. |
Quote: |
“I’m more confident. I have the skills, I always had the skills, it’s just about the confidence,” Fagbenle said. |
Quote: |
Reeve said after practice on Wednesday that she feels good about Fagbenle’s position heading towards roster cuts. |
Quote: |
“Really simple, whether it’s Temi or Kizer or anybody: defend without fouling and don’t turn it over,” Reeve said. “If you do those two things you have a chance to be on the floor longer.” |
Quote: |
Fagbenle has slimmed down—she lost 23 pounds in the offseason |
Lost 23 pounds? Sounds good!
Nothing said here about her being hurt.
