Opals squad lookin old and slow. Backcourt d could be a real issue. If Liz doesn't score 24ppg and bring down 10rbds a game, we are screwed.

Same bs lineup of
Mitchell
Talbot
Allen
George
Cambage
I bet...

How does Whitcomb not make it? I don't see the point in having Lavey & Ebzery either. Weird. Rest of squad pretty predictable.

HC Sandy-Phoenix, Mitchell former pg
AST Chambers-southside, Mitchell former pg
AST Goriss-Canberra, Mitchell former pg

It should be Whitcomb, most people say the same thing. Hopefully clean out after Tokyo for Asia and next years WC.

Ebzery is the best pg we have atm. Wnbl season and international results prove that.
Madgen has done nothing at international level, so too Lavey and even Mansfield.

For this level..
Heal is not ready.
Rocci is not ready
Mangakahia is not ready
Wallace is not ready.
Reid is not ready
Etc etc...

I'm fine with Mitchell, for me it's Lavey and Ebzery. Wouldn't have both, so likely just Ebzery and having Whitcomb instead of Lavey. Sam can play PG too.
Really surprises me she missed.

You can't take 2 naturalised players. It’s Mitchell or Whitcomb.

I think Mitchell,will be ok offensively, Eventhough she's been poor in the wnba, I see her getting 10pts+ a game and 5asts. The big issue is defense. Allemand-Belgium, li-China, oneill-Puerto Rico.
She has already been terrible once before in defending these players

So Mitchell is naturalised even though she's Aboriginal?

She was born in the USA, same wiith Whitcomb. If either of them got citizenship before 16, both could of played,

Why did Japan go with edwards over rossiter?

Also, they have 2 guys born in USA only getting citizenship after 16, how does that work?

Togashi - Vendrame
Baba- Tanaka - Heijima
Watanabe - Harimoto - Kamamaru
Hachimura - Schafer
Edwards - Watanabe

The starting 5 will play big minutes.
Easily the best Japanese squad theyve ever put together.
A couple more years and 2-3 more quality players will fill the backup spots.
The naturalised spot will also have a better player.
5-6 players u25 also a good sign.
