Your work is fantastic. I think between Paige, Liv, and Dom, this is going to be a more flashy class than a lot would have thought. They will continue the momentum of last year’s historic rookie class 🎉
Overall, pretty nice assessment of I'm assuming draft eligible players. Think I would put Raven ahead of Rivers for guard/wing defender. Raven reminds me so much of Jackie Young. I believe she has that potential. Her D is ahead of her offense right now. But I don't see her entering the draft this year unless South Carolina repeats or she has a great run in the tournament. Otherwise, she stays another year and continues to improve her offensive bag.
Oliva has crazy handles and passing, I don't think she will ever be as good as Caitlin but she has a lot of the same skill set in terms of passing ability and this year her ability to shoot the 3. Caitlin didn't play with 2 other WNBA players as good as Hannah or Sonia Citron, so she had to do more with less and I think that helps Oliva's 3 point percent this year.
Why did you have to include CC in this?the video isn't about that and every womens basketball conversation does not have to be a comparison to CC...this notion that cc is so much further advanced than anybody and noone can be as good as her is childish and irresponsible...grow up...become a fan of the GAME...not an adult male GROUPIE 😢😢
@@BryantBrothers-gm1qx Breh I'm pretty sure I know more about basketball than you. I think Caitlin being talked about creates more conversation and his channel needs to grow. You seem to be the one being childish because you are the one who is insulting me for "talking" about someone.
Hunter i respect you a lot, but i think Miles has very small sample size , and she wouldnt have the same space in the WNBA, she plays on a team where she is not even the #1 threat, people send double team to Hidalgo instead, and will often even leave Miles open because of her last years of being non shooter and cover Citron instead, numbers show this and you know it as well, i hope for her sake she can shooting well but its legit very small sample. 2023 season she shot 22.8% from the 3 point line on 2.8 attempts per game 2022 season she shot 27.0% from 3 point line on 3.7 attempts per game 2024 season she shoots 47.9% from the 3 point line on 4.4 attempts per game Lets compare that for example to this year Lexie Hull in WNBA 47.1% this year on 2.1 attempts and mid/low 20% on previous years on same attempts clearly she has gotten better , but its still very small sample, and both her and Miles have a chance to go to original numbers or low 30% high 27-29% and that will be the most likley scenario as many examples in the past have shown us. Its only 11 games, where in vast majority she is wide open or have 5,5-5,7 slow below average athlete guard trying to close out and not really affecting her shot, this will not be the case in wnba. Her shot is the same, nothing is changed , elbow same position hand follow up etc, the difference is more people are worried about Hidalgo/Citron this year, Citron has had seven 3 pointers made when the game was clutch ( 5mins or less left and game is within 5 points), Miles has only 1, meaning even via scouting and advance stats people know that coaches give the ball to Hidalgo to cook, and are more worried about her and open Citron than Miles, this resulting in some good looks via small sample for Miles. Check the loses from this season in the 4 qtr for Notre Dame, The ball is not in her hands, and she hasnt made a shot in the last 5 minutes, meanwhile its CItron and Hidalgo hitting said shots to win games. She is the best passer right now in NCAAW , but shooting and off-ball is still a big question mark, and those are skills she might need in first few years in the league to have good minutes.
I really hope the Liberty don't get Satou and she is healthy all year like some people are predicting because barring injury the liberty would easily win the Chip.
@@clampsgiveup9235I'm a Liberty fan from back in the day. Cried when we finally won. But I don't see us repeating though. Glad we just got one after all these years.🙂
@@clampsgiveup9235 so difficult to win one let alone repeat. Teams don't come back with the same hunger once they win. They certainly have the talent, but not sure same desire will be there.
@@natureredux1957 You act like JuJu plays like Paige, passive and off the ball. (Might be Geno's system, and it might be Paige not sure until she gets to the W) But JuJu is always looking for opportunities just sometimes her teammates don't pass her the ball.

Great video, Hunter!

Malonga is something special.
Great video! Can you do one on Bigs ? I hope Aoka Lee gets her flowers. 2nd round draft I hope at least.
When talking about the wingspan I'm a little confused doesn't bring the Stewart have like a 7-foot wingspan😅
Oops never mind you covered it😂😂😂😂😂😂
Buckets is the top dawg...

Your opinion means nothing
the way Caitlin always gets mentioned my god😭😭😭

I think we found the Caitlin Clark haters haha
Would like to see Liatu King's mid range #"s. In the ND games I watched she was lethal. Looked like 1 orlf the best mid range shooters in the country

I really want Chicago to get Olivia miles i have never seen a passing prospect like her since Chelsea Gray she's probably going to go number 2 tho
Then you better hope
Flaujae enters the draft😮
We may actually see some significant draft day trades this year.
Miles to LA at 2
Hoping Miles stays at ND. She will earn more at Nd than going pro.
keep my queen away from that team
Thank you! I’m so excited for next WNBA season. Liberty will repeat but should be fun 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I really hope the Liberty don't get Satou and she is healthy all year like some people are predicting because barring injury the liberty would easily win the Chip.
@ I wouldn’t say easily but adding her would def be an even bigger superteam. Hopefully the Wings get a lot in return due to her being a restricted FA

@ so happy for you!!! Why can’t you see a repeat happening? Literally the best built team in the league.

Sonia Citron who I like by the way as player, is going to turn out to be the most overrated Defender, ever coming out of College.
LOL and you said I know nothing about basketball. She made JuJu look really bad when she guarded her.
@@chrisstrawn3396 JuJu made JuJu look bad. Eventually you are going to have to figure that out for yourself. LMAO.
@@natureredux1957 JuJu is a generational talent. Again you show you don't know much.
@@chrisstrawn3396 So you still have NOT figured it out but you should have. LMAO. The only person that can stop JuJu is herself. LMAO.
