SWK is a glue type player. Good defensively. Good speed. Good athleticism. Good teammate. Can actually make those midrange shots (unlike Boyd or Clarendon for example). Not ooh, ooh, ah, ah anywhere but I think she's a solid player to have as a backup.

Hard nose, can hit 3's, defends, can play both guard positions. Potentially a starter in the right situation. She improved each year after being drafted. Got bigger minutes behind Powers after Kristi went down. I for one will miss her. I'm thinking Liberty wanted her.

Could it be insurance in case Meesseman doesn't come over?

Thanks y’all! I do think glue players are important, and I wondered why she didn’t do ‘better’ than she has to this point. It’s tough I don’t see much playing time for her in NY. But if we keep her, happy to have her! I noticed on Instagram that EDD called her ‘mom’? Anybody have anything on that lol

I wonder if Thibault would have picked Agnew with the #12 pick if he would have kept it.
I’m also curious if he was tempted to go with Pivec at #24. Pivec ended up going #25, to the glee of Collen.

On Feb. 1, 2013 in Oakland, Ca., Lacob, Guber and Richie formally announced that the Mystics were sold and moving to the Bay Area and play home games at the Oracle Arena. They will now be known as the Golden State Grizzlies with a color scheme matching the Warriors |

If the WNBA were to have a season, (which I’m not sure will happen) will Delle Donne opt to sit out. She is probably high risk with her Lyme Disease, and I would imagine she wouldn’t want to leave her family if the season took place in one location. I would also imagine her sister would be high risk as well.

Inside source and I've now been told she'll be suspended instead.

Here’s an issue I haven’t seen addressed anywhere. In light of the pandemic, has the league done away with the notion that the players must travel through commercial airlines, which puts the players at a higher risk for infection?
Has there ever been a restriction on how international players come to the USA? For instance, if air travel was an deterring issue for Zandalasini coming in this season, could Glen Taylor fly her over in one of his private jets?
Of course, it’s a lot cheaper and more efficient if the player takes commercial and just uses extra precautions, like wearing a N95 mask and a face shield to protect the eyes.

Count me as surprised. I really thought Emma would stay in Europe this season.

According to Het Nieuwsblad (in Dutch), she will leave on Thursday for the United States. Her expected arrival this week was also confirmed by the Mystics organization.
In addition, Belgian guard Julie Allemand, a rookie for the Indiana Fever will leave tomorrow for the US, according to Het Nieuwsblad’s report. |

Cloud & Sanders "opt-out". Still expecting Delle Donne to follow.
https://mystics.wnba.com/news/cloud-sanders-to-opt-out-of-2020-season/
I'd guess and say Shey Peddy gets the first call-up. Maybe Agnew or Sutton get called in as well?

SF: Powers
