8. Connecticut Sun

Jonquel Jones is the star she looked like she’d become last year. Courtney Williams, a reserve guard, led the Sun to a victory over San Antonio on June 3, a reminder of this team’s depth. But missing the excellent Morgan Tuck, who is out with what the team has called a knee contusion, is a reminder of this team’s achilles heel, which is sometimes an achilles heel, other times a knee injury, ankle, you name it: the Sun badly need some health luck.
