| The Las Vegas Aces have acquired WNBA All-Star Liz Cambage from the Dallas Wings, Rachel Galligan of WNBAinsidr reports. The two parties had been nearing a deal since at least Monday when SB Nation’s Brady Klopfer suggested that a trade was imminent |

| Yeah, so now you add Harrison and Imani added to Plaisance, George, Gustafson, GloJo, Stevens, and Thornton. I guess if you call Stevens and Thornton both SFs, you can have that many posts. Or is somebody else going to go? Gustafson?

A fair point. So's Plaisance, if it wasn't for that ludicrous contract. |

IMS is 5 years younger, 3 inches taller, better at rebounding.

I wonder how Skylar Diggins-Smith feel about this? shit she's a Superstar in her own right
she gotta be not happy seeing one of the best players in the W traded.
will she ask for a trade in the future like Liz did? who knows. just wanted to bring that up

Yeah, that 29% career three-point percentage really puts the fear of god into opponents. |

There’s been signs they want to move Diggins off the ball, so she’d still start. They’d have Ogunbowale and Gray as backups. What’s so terrible about that?

| In a span of a few hours, Dallas went from having a vacancy in the middle (and the possibility of having to play Glory Johnson and Azura Stevens together in the frontcourt, given the lack of quality players to start at center), to having Isabelle Harrison and Imani McGee-Stafford on the roster.

It's better, but I'd hesitate to say it's good

so
Jefferson/(Diggins-Smith)
Gray/Ogunbowale/Hill
Stevens/Thorton
Johnson/Gustafson
Harrison/Plaisance/IMS
so Davis, Burke and Geoarge get cut if they keep all their new toys (unless they trade or swallow Hill's contract) and Diggins-Smith counts against the roster (still not sure she does again not sure if she doesn't play is there a maternity stipulation that allows her to get paid and not count against the cap and/or roster?).
Did they convince Jefferson to play? My guess is yes by letting her know she will have a bigger role. She is technically a RFA next season and needs to prove herself to be in max consideration if she decides to continue in the W. Or maybe she is still sitting out which is why Vegas needed to throw in the 2nd round pick? or maybe she will join the team late if injury and fatigue were a real issue.

Switch Harrison and Gustafson position-wise.
I would still hang on to Davis. I think she has potential (or at least some trade value down the road...). Plaisance goes, IMO, and Stevens moves to the post.
