Even though she has yet to play in a regular season game, Seimone Augustus is already being viewed as the face and future of Lynx basketball.

Chris Wright, President of the Lynx: "When you have the opportunity to pick first, and the moons align and there is a talent like what this young lady has ... from a marketing standpoint, you've got to find a way to take advantage of that."

And while the humble Augustus is comfortable in the role as face of the franchise, she thinks that if people come to see her play they will leave impressed with her teammates as well.

One of those teammates is fellow first round pick Shona Thorburn. Before the NCAA tournament, Thorburn had dreams and goals she would have a chance to play in the league but was not sure of her chances coming out of Utah.
