Many rookies in training camps around the WNBA have unfinished college business to complete – while competing for scant roster spots.
“It’s crazy thinking I was just playing in a national championship two weeks ago, two-and-a-half weeks ago,” said Nelson-Ododa, whose pursuit of an economics degree includes four spring courses that didn’t end when the Sparks called her name on draft night, 19th overall.
On Friday, the Sparks waived Horvat and Gordon , cuts that came as the team began to pare its 20-player preseason pool to its final 12-woman roster. NBA prospects also have three months or so of pre-draft preparation, including opportunities to work out for teams. And then there’s an entire summer – including summer league action – to absorb a new team’s system while learning what it takes to perform at the highest level.
