Harold Stier, the 'Just The Stats' columnist for Full Court Press, has submitted his missing person's report.
Chamique Holdsclaw missed 11 Mystics games. With her in the lineup Washington was 10-13 (.435), without her they were 7-4 (.636) and made the post season.
Katie Smith not only missed nearly all of the Olympics but also the last 11 Lynx games. With Smith on the floor Minnesota was 13-10 (.565). The Lynx were 5-6 (.455) in the remaining games and made the playoffs.
The Sparks were 13-6 (.684) when DeLisha Milton went to the bench and 12-3 (.800) since her departure.
Swin Cash only missed two games and while she will be sorely missed, the Shock won both games to improve their 15-17 record to 17-17 and a chance to defend their title.
The Liberty started the season without either Tari Phillips or Ann Wauters. With Phillips and/or Wauters available, New York was 8-10 (.444) and finished at 18-16, 10-6 (.625) with the pair available.
