The WNBA season is over, and the picks have been made. Just like every draft, there are some picks that I love and some that had me wondering what exactly the teams could have been thinking. I wrote an article a few days ago about the three players that I am excited to see, and it just so happens that two of them are on the same team. Cameron Brink and Rickea Jackson were both drafted to the LA Sparks. I really hope the WNBA finds a way to give some of these players a fair chance to make the team, but that’s a topic for later.
