Show notes
Host and The Next’s New York Liberty beat reporter Jackie Powell is joined by Fever beat reporter Tony East to break down some of the WNBA’s most and least predictable training camps. They run through the entire league in their quest to determine who might make final rosters by opening day on May 16. First Jackie and Tony examine the toughest camps to make in the Indiana Fever, Minnesota Lynx, New York Liberty and Chicago Sky. Then they shift focus to the middle of the pack which includes Las Vegas Aces and Seattle Storm. Later, the pair runs through some competitive camps that provide younger players including some of the latest WNBA Draftees with more opportunities like the Washington Mystics, Dallas Wings, Connecticut Sun, Phoenix Mercury and the Golden State Valkyries.
