Description
Brittney Griner is detained in Russia, shadowing everything in the women's basketball world right now. It also creates an incredibly difficult set of choices for the WNBA and the Phoenix Mercury, who have a season to plan even as they focus on bringing Griner home. So what does it all mean for things like the roster number, salary cap, and how to make sure there is a runway for Griner's return that doesn't create more difficulties for anyone involved? Alex Simon of Bay Area Sports Group joins Howard Megdal to discuss what we learned on draft night, what the Mercury are doing to solidify their post play in the meantime, and why the rules created for Brittney Griner truly don't have any comps in league history — and, everyone hopes, never need to be used again.
