so
Sloot/Allemand/Evans
Quigley/Davis
Copper/Stevens
Meesseman/Hebard
Parker/IMS
can Chicago afford this if IMS and Davis are on minimum contracts?
I'm just playing with positions
technically you could do this instead
Sloot/Allemand
Quigley/Evans
Copper/Davis
Meesseman/Stevens/Hebard
Parker/IMS

If I did the number adding correctly - then no they can't afford that group
Copper......... 200,000
Parker.......... 195,000
Vandersloot.. 195,000
Meesseman.. 185,000
Stevens........ 140,000
Quigley......... 135,000
Hebard......... 73,211
Davis............ 72,141
IMS............... 72,141
Evans............. 62,774
Allemand......... 61,049

OK see if I got it right
If these 9 are on the team
Sloot/Allemand
Quigley/Evans
Copper
Meesseman/Stevens
Parker/Hebard
then the last two spot have to be 2 year or under minimums (or something very close, no vet minimums)
so only Small, Gondrezick, Doyle, Gardner, Miley or Kragniskic or someone similar off the waiver wire can make the team
and for Davis or IMS to make the team they would have to displace Evans or maybe Hebard to afford their vet minimum contracts, but even so Chicago would still only be able to afford one of them and one of the above 2 years or less minimums..

Correct . They're very close to being able to afford one of those vet minimum contracts though, so they could bring one back very quickly after they clear waivers. Or just cut Evans. Unless they do somethhing like trade away (or cut) Hebard, they're definitely not keeping Davis and IMS, though. Hard to avoid having at least one of those remaining spots filled by a 0-2 minimum even after messing about. |

Rights to Li Yueru to Chicago (in the Lexie Brown sign and trade).
Surprised they didn’t want a draft pick so they can have a little fun on draft night.

Goodbye, Lexie. It was fun to have you on the team for one season. Evans might be the next one leaving. I don't believe the Sky will retain three point guards this upcoming season. Releasing her will give the Sky more flexibility with their roster composition.

Lexie didn't play much but I liked what I saw. It will be harder to see Evans go - she was pretty fearless! But yeah...things are kinda stacked!

Wade said his roster could still potentially see training camp additions. The max number of players a team can have in market for training camp, which begins April 17, is 15. Wade expects a handful of his players to arrive late due to their overseas careers leaving the possibility open for him to add to his training camp roster. Courtney Vandersloot, Allie Quigley, Emma Meesseman and Azurá Stevens will all be in camp on day one. |

I’ll have Kysre Gondrezick & her family in my thoughts for a little while. News just broke that her brother-in-law, former Steelers & Ohio State QB Dwayne Haskins, tragically got hit by a car and died at the very young age of 24. She has already gone through so much, I feel sick for her.

It seems like the Sky has invited half the world 🌎 to their training camp. I would like to know what players actually show up to the first week of camp.🧐

Wade signed Li Yueru to a rookie-scale contract last week, but she won’t be in camp. Whether the Chinese Basketball Federation will permit her to play in the WNBA this season is unclear. That leaves the Sky with two open spots and 14 training-camp players. |
Doesn’t seem fair that Han would be permitted but others not. But maybe this is the way they do things in China.
Quote: |
Finals MVP Kahleah Copper will arrive at camp late because of overseas commitments. |
Quote: |
Imani McGee-Stafford could crack Wade’s 11-player roster if Li can’t participate this season. |
