More draft ink. The New London Day's DiMauro: "Someone should buy Washington officials a train ticket to Connecticut to see how sports franchises should operate." (DiMauro says Adams left because Washington refused to renegotiate his contract; given a raise, supposedly, Adams would have stayed.)

Sun fans should get used to bad puns about Dydek's height. Debbie Black says Dydek never liked playing for Utah/San Antonio; T-Bone says "Feenstra would have contributed, but Margo changes the game." SASS coach Hughes likes the trade: "We want people who want to be here."

Tennessee, UConn, Texas and Rutgers sent two players each into the draft. UConn's J-Mo says one of her "life [goals] is checked right off." (Shouldn't she wait till she actually makes a roster?)

Kara Braxton expects to see "family and friends" in Michigan, where she lived for a year during high school. Laimbeer says he "tried to trade up to get" Braxton, but adds "We're real disappointed we didn't get Kristin Haynie today... We're going to talk with [Sacramento] to see if we can work out some kind of deal where maybe we can bring Kristin home."

In L.A., new coach Bibby all but says "Draft? What draft? We have the Claw, and you don't."
