Curious about the player development pool will function, especially in the face of these final waives. Does anyone have insight?
My big question is in relation to Emese Hof. Dorka and Phee will both be out to begin the season due to injury, so will Emese immediately be able to jump into roster action? And if yes, will we also get to fill her spot in the development pool? So perhaps instead of choosing just one of Sherrod, Poffenbarger, and King, we could take one now and bring in another later if Emese is activated.
That then leads to the question of what happens once Dorka and Phee are both healthy again. Emese goes back to the pool and the third string development player gets waived again?
Is back and forth like that allowed?
I also think Cheryl's strategy is interesting with the development pool. It's also smart, as Cheryl always is. Bring in international vets but WNBA rookies who can be a bit more "plug and play" rather than true development players. Probably not how the pool was intended to be used, at least it's not how I pictured it, but it certainly makes sense and is very strategic.
