The Associated Press released its latest WNBA mock draft earlier this week, with one notable choice at #20 – Baylor's Australian senior Kristy Wallace to the Phoenix Mercury. The AP consults with coaches and general managers before putting together this list, but coaches are not allowed to offer a pick for their own team. However, prevailing opinion among those team decision-makers consulted appears to be that Mercury (and Opals) coach Sandy Brondello will use one of her consecutive second round picks at #20 and #21 to draft Wallace despite the fact the Baylor star won’t be available until 2019 following a devastating ACL injury in the final regular season game of her senior year.
