Rachel Banham, the WNBA draft and the Minnesota Lynx

[station19]

As much attention as she's been attracting lately, Minnesota's Rachel Banham has been something of a Wild Card when it comes to where she'll end up going in April's WNBA draft. Keep in mind that she applied for an extra year of eligibility after last season's knee injury and there were questions about how well she'd recover and how good she'd be without Amanda Zahui B., the dominant Gophers center who was the second overall pick in last year's draft.

Questions about how good she'd be without Zahui B? Seriously? Banham was a stud long before ZB exploded onto the scene last season. Banham's been great in college for 4+ years. Is this writer just figuring that out?
