Zena and Layshia kick things off with the blockbuster trade of Angel Reese to the Atlanta Dream, breaking down how she’ll fit with the team. From there, the duo dives into the Washington Mystics’ recent changes, including the departure of GM Jamila Wideman over strategic differences, with head coach Sydney Johnson stepping in to take on GM responsibilities as well.  With the WNBA Draft coming up next week, Zena and Layshia break down which players boosted their stock during the tournament and which ones left lingering questions. They also highlight the lack of a clear favorite for the number one pick, putting players like Lauren Betts, Olivia Miles, and Azzi Fudd in the mix for number one. They wrap it all up with a fun round of “Match That Player.” REFERENCES:  Chicago Sky trade Angel Reese to Atlanta Dream for 2 first-round picks by Sabreena Merchant Angel Reese’s trade another example of Chicago Sky’s inability to hold onto stars by Shakeia Taylor __ No Offseason is a part of The Athletic Podcast Network Email us: NoOffseason@theathletic.com Sign up for the No Offseason newsletter!
