Coach Donovan hints that if they get lucky and get the #1 pick, they'll take Taurasi. If they get something else, they'll look for a trade.
"As a non-playoff team, you're looking at one of the top six players in this draft," Donovan said. "Can that pick help us? Absolutely. If we were so fortunate to get the number one pick, that player could definitely help us. If you get two through six, it may become very valuable in a trade."
With its largely international cast, Seattle could be in a really tough spot next year depending on how the league decides to resolve the conflict with the Olympics.
