One more draft call

I don't remember there being as much copy and hype around a WNBA draft in a while. Here's one last fling before pickin' time:

Funny stuff from draftees.

WNBA teams are wondering about Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis' defense.

Sun coach Anne Donovan thinks Iowa's Samantha Logic one of the best on the draft point guard list.

Storm general manager Alisha Valavanis says community connectedness is the key to the league's stability.

Draft prospect Jude Schimmel has a new book out called "you don't have to leave the reservation to be successful."

Three from the ACC are attending the draft.

Draft night has arrived for Iona star Damika Martinez.

Texas Tech's Amber Battle is seeking a chance in the WNBA.

Mississippi State's Martha Alwal and Kendra Grant are eager to pursue professional careers.

Vicky McIntyre wants to be the first Oral Roberts player in the WNBA.

Jewell Loyd:

Loyd has overcome a lot - in her own words.

Tough choices are not new to the former Notre Dame guard, who comes from a tennis-loving family.

Loyd is not a lock as the Storm's number one draft pick.

One ESPN writer says Loyd leaving college early was a good thing.

College news:

Wichita State coach Jody Adams is interviewing at Kansas.

Former Marquette guard Kenisha Bell has transferred to Minnesota.
