and by WBA we mean WNBA ... ; )

Well, Sheryl will be in Seattle green this year, and not in bottom feeder Houston Red ... what else will this offseason bring ???

Alway been a huge Sheryl fan, I hope she's healthy and plays happy ...

I don't know what to think about this move. Sure Seattle will have a Hall of Fame Starting Five, but a bench that potentially will be very, very bad. If I am not mistaken all five starters will be making the max. that does not leave much for the six remaining players.

they won't be playing the 12 deep white line defense that's for sure ... definitely a gamble not having a deep bench, definitely a gamble not having 5 great starters ...

Seattle's other starters (Bird, Lauren, Swin Cash, Wendy Palmer) make the maximum amount or pretty close to it. And Janell Burse was, IIRC, cored, so she's gotta be making the max or close to it.

Therefore, I'm wondering if Sheryl took a pay cut to join the Storm.
