Nah, Reeves and the Lynx are like Popovich and the Spurs. They keep a really tight ship, no room for individuality or games.
Reeves is known to stay away from players with too much sauce because they cause a lot of trouble.
IMO, best place for Reese would be the Aces, she can get by playing defense and having fun with teammates.

Charli was only picked by Dallas because she's 6'10 and the GM really likes tall bigs. Everyone on Dallas is either 5'6 or 6'5.
Charli didn't get game time because she can't keep up with the pace of the game. She looked lost out there.
I heard she cooking the new Mexican league tho.

Indiana tried that with Kysre, didn't move the needle at all. Same with Te'a and the Sparks.
No individual player can save the lack of attention the WNBA gets.
Ratings are already up

If caitlyn looks like caitlyn in the WNBA she's going to do numbers

Angel being good at the WNBA level playing against caitlyn would be a bonus

Reese gotta develop some post moves and a jumper, alot of the shyt in her game not gonna fly at the next level with grown women. Also doesn't help that the coach she plays for isn't necessarily known for preparing her players the best for the next level.

23 and 15, with Finals MVP as a sophomore. And dudes are doubting her?


Hot take :mjpls: media vibes. Go ‘head and take those 6 players before her. Won’t matter anyway.


Dude one post above you gave you great breakdown as to why some people think her game might not translate well

What are you talking about

She has a knack for anticipating where the ball is going go after a missed shot and a high motor but she frequently knock off balance during international play this past summer. Her offensive game consists of just a scoop shot layup and the power forwards she will be going up against that are way more versatiled offensively (EDD, Stewart, Wilson) or have high motors just like her (Nneka, Natasha Howard, Alyssa Thomas, Nalyssa Smith).
Yea this is 100% facts, Reese averaged 8pts a game on 36% shooting in the FIBA Americas tourney this summer, the physical play definitely bothered her.

I read a tweet earlier today about Fudd not having any intentions to declare for the 2024 draft
I had a feeling about that, but is she projected as a high draft pick? I know her and Paige were killing here in the NoVA area.

Of course there’s room for improvement, she was an only a sophomore. She’s not coming out NOW, so no need to delve into how her game won’t translate NOW. She has 2 years left to improve.
My response was to the ones who CREATED the mock draft, not the poster above me, or you.

So what are you taking about?

I don't think it really matters in which spot she'll be drafted, she will be good either way.

What team she gets drafted by is what matters most imo because exposure is important in the WNBA. Certain teams have more exposure and notoriety which can help with her brand getting more bigger than it currently is with LSU.

I'd like to see on the Sparks, Mercury, Sky, or the Aces.

A three year sophomore. She played two years at Maryland and one year at LSU. LSU listed her as a sophomore because of the extra Covid year she got.
