WNBA draft on ESPN at 5am Tues

Nice!

Jarry traded to Minnesota

The Minnesota Lynx traded Felecia Chester to the Atlanta Dream for Rachel Jarry and a 2012 second round draft pick.

And this from Jarry on Twitter:

Quote: Think I just got traded to @MinnesotaLynx!! Crazyyyy morning but I get to play with Maya Moore one day.. AMAZINGGGGGGG! #stillinshock

Clearing sensing the triumph of the evening,
two good articles in news adelaide now , and it's not an exaggeration to say that the whole town was talking
"At pick number 2 in the 2011 WNBA Draft. Tulsa Shock
Elizabeth Cambeige , from Australia."
Wonderful stuff. Shown on SBS news and sports tonite
a great story on that 10th anniversary of LJ's draft.
We've gotta LC n EC on here and in the WNBA.

Honestly, I have no idea where Tomlinson may be headed.

Europe could be an option as well, but I reckon a season in the NBL, possibly with a Victorian based team may be on the radar.

Tomlinson was a victim of playing on a small-time team in mid-major conference.

She may still get picked up as a FA though. A year or two in the WNBL though would be both good for her and the league though too.

Yeah, not sure why they kept putting that graphic on the screen because in the many dozens of mock drafts I had seen she rarely rated a mention.

Liz was in full fabulous mode though, representing Australia in style.

News report with interview, plus footage of her being selected:

I'm hoping that the Opals decide en masse to stay home from the 2012 WNBA season, but that would have to include the Jacksons & the Taylors to be effective, otherwise Liz might as well keep heading stateside. It's not like there is even the remote possibility of her being left out of the olympic team if she misses a few camps.

Congrats Cambage and Jarry! Both should do well when they make the move over.

Quite a few Aussies now signed to teams in the WNBA...and with the prospect of more in the coming few years.

She looked beautiful.
(BA would like as many as possible here in 2012.
What's her best preparation for London.
Here or WNBA. Probably WNBA.)

Just watched an ESPN report online which said 'crossing news - Cambage is not expected to play for the Shock in 2012 as she will be playing in her National League in Australia".

Does that mean she will play 2011 and not go in 2012 or is she not going this year at all.

Contrasts with what she said in interviews afterwards - getting to Tulsa 14 May.

Anyone?

5:00am is EST btw

Would take balls of steel for any GM to pass up Maya Moore at #1. She's worth #1, but I think she'll go #2.
Rachel Jarry should be snapped up before the 2nd round is done.

Be worth watching the Liz Cambage Spectacular.
She's bringing her mother along.
The feeling is good . Pick number one.
