Welcome!
The WNBA season is months away, but it's never too early to start thinking about the 2008 WNBA Draft. Hyped as the most anticipated draft in women's professional basketball history, the 2008 WNBA Draft will have it's fair share of big names and even bigger games. In this blog, we hope to shed a little light on some of the better prospects at each position or skill and look to keep up-to-date on their progress as they conclude their collegiate careers.
Introducing...The Athletes
These are the high-flying, speed-racing, jaw-dropping, unreal players we like to call The Athletes. Catch 'em if you can...- Khadijah Whittington(NC State): As one of the most athletic players ever to play in the ACC, Whittington led the ACC in rebounds a season ago and is on constant “dunk watch” in Raleigh. No one in college basketball works harder than this undersized PF.
- - Morenike Atunrase(Texas A&M): How athletic is Atunrase? Well, she’s only Texas A&M’s all-time leader in blocked shots…at 5-10! It’s all about length and timing, folks.
- - Olayinka Sanni(West Virginia): Despite being undersized in the post, this Nigerian national team member battles relentlessly on the boards. Additionally, Sanni can score inside against anyone in the Big East.
- - Ketia Swanier(Uconn): You don’t realize just how fast Swanier is until she’s driving the lane and passing off to an open teammate—all before you have the chance to turn around and regain your bearings.
- - Lindsay Pluimer(UCLA): Not many players attack the boards aggressively and then get up and down the court at 6-4 like Pluimer. That’s what makes her one of the more versatile players in the Pac-10.
