Statistically only 8 players survive from 36.

That has never been the case in the entire history of the WNBA, and won't be true this year either

Except for last year? And the year before... and the year before that it was around 10.

Try again.
Last year nearly 20 drafted players made rosters and played regular season minutes.
In both 2019 and 2020 the number was 20+ players.

Statistically 1 out of 2 people don't know what words mean.

Why do they have more than 2 rounds given the talent pool compared to the NBA and aforentioned comments.
Seems counterintuitive.

Gondrezsick
Dungee
Onyenwere
Walker

Evans
Richards

I'm betting less than 10 again survive.
Already seen 3 waived.

Congrats to Jade! Hopefully they let her continue to develop and she heads over in a few years time.

Plenty of time for Melbourne to get to the WNBA if she is good enough, needs some serious minutes under her belt in the WNBL and the National program. Lots of opportunities coming up after WC with the Opals which will be in rebuild mode. Little Heal made the mistake of going too early and was caught out big time, hope there are some sensible heads around this kid.

Atwell and Bibby would be the picks for WNBL teams for next season.

Statistically that sure looks like more than 8 to me, and that was one of the shallower draft classes in recent memory.

Teams have not been selected yet obviously...
You know from the wnba forum luuuc that the depth charts shown have most players on the list above not making the final roster.

The 2020 draft has only 9 left with cuts to be made...
