How did she go from 5th overall pick last year to coaching at a mid major?
Hadn’t seen anything other than praise for her being hired on as a coach…

Probably realized the WNBA doesn't pay for shite. Getting into coaching probably provides a lot more stability as far as income.

She got cut by Dallas after one season.

I was thinking this but isn’t wnba basically a summer league? Could do both.
May 6th- Aug 14th…
Finals were done last year by mid October… with the season ending a month later.

Damn. That sucks. At least someone is giving her a shot getting into coaching. Gotta start somewhere.

Good point. Didn’t someone coach on our team last year that was also playing in the WNBA?

Just how terrible do you have to be to get cut after 1 year on a number 5 pick??

Because #5 pick in WNBA is meaningless if you go to a team with 3 top 5 draft picks in the same draft. The coach then doesn't play you.
Basically no place to play and many top picks/rookie of the years get cut.

This was always a difficult league to make, with just 144 women across 12 teams. Now it is even more of an uphill climb to make a roster, with the number of total players in the 130-range as many teams elect to carry less than 12 players to fit under the team salary cap, which is a hard cap that franchises can’t go over, unlike many other sports leagues.

Makes sense when your whole league is subsidized.
