Nice summary, Jeff. Of course my favorite off-season move was the Storm signing Skylar Diggins-Smith to a 2-year deal which likely gets them out of the lottery and then signing Nneka Ogwumike which was an even bigger surprise to me. That definitely will keep the Seattle Storm out of the lottery. I hated to see the Storm give up their number 4 pick in the draft also but it was necessary to get not one but two All-Star players. We should have a very exciting season in 2024. I'm looking forward to it. I wonder if the Storm can make any more moves or not? I'm sure that they can't sign EDD but they will need to sign at least two or three more players or up to five more for training camp. Let us know if you have any insight on who else the Storm might bring in.
I had one question on your article regarding the Minnesota Lynx. You liked their addition of Courtney Williams. You said that she was one of the best rebounding guards in the W. Then you said that on 2023 she averaged 6.3 apg, which I believe, but I thought that you were making the point about how good she was at rebounding by telling us how many rpg she averaged, so I was a little confused. If you meant rpg then that would be truly phenomenal for a guard to average 6.3 rebounds per game, but I doubt that was the case. It would have been nice of you had listed both her rebounds (rpg) and her assists (apg).
