In Minnesota, the Strib's Pam Schmid, who sat out the college hoops season, will return to cover the WNBA. This morning, she says Lynx fans are reasonable people, especially compared to last year. The Lynx don't necessarily need a starter, "have more than a dozen different scenarios" for their 11th and 17th picks, "and even then could still wind up surprised." Schmid's mock draft (apparently a print-edition exclusive) sends the Fantastic Four to the usual places, Haynie to Minnesota, and Braxton to Connnecticut.

In Kansas, Wecker says "everybody in the league" would want to play in Phoenix with DT.
