Lynx Draft Talk

[Ski U Mah Gopher]

I figured since the Lynx are part of the Arod-Lore umbrella, this would be the board for Lynx stuff.

Since Allana Smith signed with Dallas, it seeems that they will select Fudd with the #1 pick

So will it be Fam or Betts to the Lynx?

She's a terrible defensive player, and that will bother Reeve, but my guess is the Lynx take PG Olivia Miles. She's the best offensive player in this Draft. Most people think we'll end up taking Betts but signing Howard might alleviate the need to go with a big.

With that said, maybe the financials didn't work under their Cap, but letting Alanna Smith walk was a huge mistake.

I think I’m gonna like Olivia Miles. She’s got some filthy moves.
