8. Phoenix Mercury: Lexie Brown, 5’9 G Duke

There’s so much to like about Brown’s game. She’s elite from deep. She is among the best in the country in steal percentage. At 5’9, with a strong frame, she won’t be bullied by other point guards. There are concerns—the turnover percentage is too high, the assist percentage is lower than you’d expect from someone with her passing skills—but the Mercury won’t have any problem mixing her into the Leilani Mitchell/Diana Taurasi guard rotation.
