Welcome back to WNBA Notes, your journey into trends and analysis around the WNBA. Today we’re looking at the troubled roster construction in Phoenix and Washington, a fun few minutes in Minnesota on Thursday, and Kaila Charles’ jumper form over time. For reference, since this notebook comes out over the weekend, I define “this week” as the prior Sunday through last night.
Tankathon Check-in
To be clear, no one in the WNBA is currently tanking on purpose (at least, the players aren’t). That being said, let’s see where our teams are right now in the lottery standings and where they project to end up (chart vaguely organized by rightmost column). A team led by Alyssa Thomas is probably not going to be in the lottery, but it is where it is, and it’s hard to say which of the non-Toronto teams tied for the seventh seed or higher look poised to drop out.
