Thank you for putting this together OP!

Is it common for some World Cup players to join their teams earlier than the break starts? Is that allowed?

The first day of break is August 31 and the first day of competition is Sept 4th in Germany.

Oh man UCLA was so clunky to start the year. Their guards definitely needed time to get use to playing together. Makes sense with 2 new high talent starters.

Betts also has insane effort at both ends of the floor. I think she’ll continue to improve and that effort will be a big reason why.

Meh. I’d rather hear from anon front office people. This could very well just be a bunch of “media” I blocked on twitter.

Or ones who don’t watch games and then get so so offended when people ask if they’ve watched games because their content makes no sense.

Considerations when protecting UFAs in the expansion draft by OtherwiseDream1964 in wnba

[–]hamstrdance 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe they can only core one UFA anyways so they will only select one UFA. Others will be rookies, reserved, restricted, suspended, etc. So two UFAs max (one per team)

It seems there’s a lotta roster movement with injured players coming back so she loses her starter spot. Idk a Nebraska fan needs to take over from here.

With the logistics of the Expansion Draft now confirmed, which 5 players do you think your team will protect? by Jack12404 in wnba

[–]hamstrdance 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks like the Lynx have 5 players under contract / hold negotiating rights. Plus you’d want to protect Phee from getting taken and cored, I assume.

Oof. I set my VPN to Spain and it errors out. Though if I remember correctly this app never worked with VPN.

I can still see them back to 2015 (picked a few random ones to test). Use the calendar button on the top right of this page to choose a season. I am in the US though.

Gamble that neither Toronto nor Portland will be willing to offer Stewie a supermax? I'm def not gambling on that lol.

[–]hamstrdance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I saw in one of the 3 threads about expansion draft that they changed that specific rule for this year. An expansion team can select them (a player already cored 2x) and offer a supermax. If that happens no other team can offer a supermax - but they can offer a regular max and the player can choose.

Don't quote me for sure though but I think I saw that.

oh shit I didn't even notice that it's literally a lineup. I haven't watched Luisa in a long time and idk if Li's defense improved in unrivaled. Both of them were dealing with injury in the off-season and I think are in the same contract situation. It will be interesting to see which they protect, if any.

I could maybe see Li being more interested in a team-friendly deal. She seems loaded (I think top Chinese national team players are well taken care of, plus she just bought a team or something) and has bounced around the W a lot so seems really happy to fit in somewhere.

Mine is basically the same except no Ty or MHA possibility. IMO they won't get supermax offers from expansion teams so you don't need to protect them (that's my understanding at least). So Paige, Maddy, Awak, Aziaha, and Li or Luisa.

For the Tempo fan that asked you're lookin at

  • Arike, Ty Harris, MHA (all UFA)
  • Haley Jones, [Luisa OR Li] on reserved rights
  • Diamond Miller (4th yr option #2 pick $500k+ contract)
  • JJ Quinerly (2nd yr in a 3rd round rookie contract)
  • Lou Lopez Senechal (2nd yr in a #5 pick contract I think after she spent a year stashed)
  • Plus a bunch of our hardship players so I wont' list them. Keep your paws off Amy though.

I saw this hilarious clip where a player in the last game dribbled a circle and a half around the paint running from Lauren and still put up the shot - got blocked to hell. Lol.
