Allemand is suspended for a partial season for Indiana, which makes you think that L. Allen and Doyle have a pretty good chance of staying for a part of the season. Given that they have Robinson and Gondrezick, I'd go with Doyle since they don't really need another point guard.

Neither Allen nor Doyle are really any good; I'd go with neither. Plus, Gondrezick's gonna need minutes somewhere. One of the Mitchells can be an emergency PG until after the Olympics – or, waiver wire. And they can still carry an active 12 on the roster while Allemand is away, like Dallas can.

PG: DRob/Gondrezick/waiver wire
SG: KMitchell/TMitchell
SF: Vivians/Wilson or waiver wire
PF: Cox/Breland/Thompson, Perry, or waiver wire
C: McCowan/Lavender

Partial-season suspended: Allemand

Cox & McCowan starting alongside each other is admittedly just wishful thinking. Unless that happens, it's gonna be another long year for the Fever. Rolling Eyes

I don’t think they’re devastated with the loss of Plaisance, KML, and Carson.

JThomas/Hiedeman
January/
Bonner/DCarrington
JJones/KCharles/[AThomas]
BJones/Mompremier

To pay for those 10 above players leaves them with 60,591 for that final spot.
That’s not even enough to pay for that second 2nd round pick, so that shows poor budgeting.

Unless Goodman has an amazing camp, I’ll take a stab at Smalls for the last spot. Let’s call it a preseason.

I suppose they could add a Jones to the collection, and slide KC & DC down a position. Hard to tell who’s doing well in camp.

But with the draft now long behind us, relatively speaking, we’re headed into an express evaluation period, with both playing time and roster spots up for grabs. Let’s take a look at the biggest decisions ahead.

This article speaks as if Gustafson will make the roster..... Laughing Laughing


Seriously, what is the fascination about that these people have with her? What am I missing because she not only shouldn't make the roster, she should have never been drafted in the first place....there is a reason 11 teams passed on her in the draft! I just don't get it!!!


I won't go so far as to say she shouldn't have been drafted. She was good enough in college to at least get a shot in a training camp.

She stuck on the Wings roster after Gloria went overseas. Agler or Bibb or whoever should've chosen Anigwe over her for the bubble season. She barely played - whereas, they could've used Anigwe last yr.


They were afraid the Hawkeyes would be under their beds at night when the lights went out....


There's a reason I've been calling that corner of the Iowa fan base the Children of the Corn...
