There’s a decent chance that Liz Kitley ends up the expansion draft pick from the Aces. It’s almost certainly either her or Kate Martin because basically everyone else the aces have on contract past this year will be protected and all the players expiring this year are olllllllld

I am totally clueless about expansion drafts, but can a big star tell their team "Hey don't protect me" if they're unhappy? I don't know how it would work with contracts, etc, but imagine Angel Reese telling the Sky to leave her unprotected. She's on a team that sucks anyway, and they just fired the coach they all liked, and from what I've read in this thread the Sky are run by morons. Escaping to a new team, in Cali, would seem pretty nice. Edit- My other dumb opinion is that Mitchell doesn't really fit in with what Indiana is building. They should let her go to the expansion team. I watched like 6 Fever games this season so I am obviously an expert! Paying2Lurk fucked around with this message at 16:03 on Oct 1, 2024 |

Just like asking for a trade, a star can ask to be unprotected and a team can ignore that request if they're under contract.

indigi posted:if Stewie goes to Golden State I will become a bat I would love it but I don't think one of the top two players is leaving one of the top two teams for an expansion one. Unless I don't know something about the contract situation and Lacob can throw way more money at her than anyone else.

theres no way sab/jj/Stewie leave or probably even want to leave NY right now. But I also never know a drat thing about contracts bc it's too confusing for me.

Hard disagree, I think she has one of the most important skills for playing with Caitlin: booking it down the floor as fast as humanly possible. It’s the same reason Temi has taken minutes from Nalyssa.

Did somebody say "New York Liberty Expansion Draft Speculation"? I don't think Stewie is at risk of not being protected but I could see them not protecting Sloot if they decide they'd rather try to develop Sabally. (Edit 10/4: added Xu Han to the Liberty's reserve) New York Liberty Roster: Ivana Dojkic (2024) Jaylyn Sherrod (2024) Kennedy Burke (2024) Courtney Vandersloot (2024) Breanna Stewart (2024) Sabrina Ionescu (2025) Jonquel Jones (2025) Betnijah Laney (2025) Kayla Thornton (2025) Nyara Sabally (2026) Marquesha Davis (2027) Leonie Fiebich (2027) Reserved/Suspended: Xu Han 6 players: Sabrina Ionescu Jonquel Jones Leonie Fiebich Betnijah Laney Brianna Stewart Courtney Vandersloot Likely Pick: Kayla Thornton Nyara Sabally I also did the Aces because I wanted to see if Megan/Kate were at risk of moving and the answer is "hard maybe for the latter". Aces probably the only team at risk of losing signing rights to a player because Kitley has been injured. Las Vegas Aces: Roster: Queen Egbo (2024) Sydney Colson (2024) Tiffany Hayes (2024) Alysha Clark (2024) Kelsey Plum (2024) Megan Gustafson (2025) Kiah Stokes (2025) Kierstan Bell (2025) Chelsea Gray (2025) A’ja Wilson (2025) Jackie Young (2025) Kate Martin (2027) Rights to: Elizabeth Kitley 6 Players: A’ja Wilson Jackie Young Chelsea Gray Kelsey Plum Kiah Stokes Megan Gustafson Likely Picks: Kate Martin DC Murderverse fucked around with this message at 00:04 on Oct 5, 2024 |

if the Aces halved their turnovers they'd probably be up by 6-8 right now

Libs played some good rear end defense to close out the half.

snyprmag posted:Libs played some good rear end defense to close out the half. yes, Sabrina in particular popped off. Two clean threes and continue to antagonize plum into a turnover and that little chip out to waste time at the end of half. still worried that NY is not capitalizing enough off these turnovers. Bench is crushing it today

they must have scored at least 10 on TOs. Aces already have 9 or 10

is there an advanced stat for like turnover conversion +/-. a +/- for each teams scores off turnovers.

well they just showed it. +11, 20 points off to lol for NY. Amazing. But no reason it can't be higher.
