Never thought I'd see the day where anyone would rank Jasmine Thomas as a top 20 player..

Vandersloot continues to be underrated. Vandersloot is one of the top 3 point guards in the league.

So I guess he ranked Angel based on her stats in Lebanon?

Wilson, Deshields, Mitchell, Canada, Nurse

Oh no, another top players list that includes several Sky players but not their best.

Also, throw player DRtg/DWS in the trash. They're awful.

I prefer J-spoon's methodology. Putting a number by a player and trying to compare a post to a PG is fruitless.

Hey everybody! Thank you for checking out my list! I wanted to be objective as possible with this list, but I can tell you one thing, it originally was going to be simply the top ten players going into 2018, and that is where some surprises, like Crystal Langhorne, who I left out ultimately, showed up in more than one category. But I used top ten stats for each category, originally thinking it was only going to be top ten. Now, were some stats over represented? I think, in retrospect, I could have gone with PERs and ignored Offensive and Defensive Ratings. I chose True Shooting or EFG rating, and I honestly wondered long and hard about 3 point shooting as a category.

What I wanted to do after I posted this list, was go back through and do it top 20 category by category, and I think I would get a more balanced list. I get why it seems an arbitrary cut off between 10 and 11. I will probably do top 20 in each stat category next season. But I added Angel at 11 because well, I think despite missing last season, she has been a top 20 player in the league, and coming into this season, she can certainly replicate her excellent play on a loaded Dream squad. Do I think players like Kayla McBride and Courtney Vandersloot could or should have made it on the list? Certainly, yes, and I think top 20 categories may have born that out.

There were players, like Chelsea Gray, who I put ahead of a legend like Taurasi, because RIGHT NOW I think Gray, looking at the stats, is the better player. But I also understand the thinking of choosing Taurasi in the playoffs in a do or die moment rather than someone else on the list.

THANK YOU FOR READING!

You realize don't you, you just walked into a bad neighborhood, late at night with no street lights working. I'd watch my back, and look out for drive by shootings.
