2. New York Liberty:  Asia Durr, 5’10 G, Louisville

For the Liberty, this means a dynamic duo of Durr and Tina Charles to create inside-outside matchup nightmares, and maximizes shooters around them, with Sugar Rodgers, Amanda Zahui B. and Rebecca Allen up to the task. Kia Nurse can be a legit third offensive option and defensive stopper. It’s a pretty strong starting five, along with whichever other options New York chooses to bring along for the ride in free agency. For a team that finished eleventh in offensive efficiency last season, it is a roadmap to improving that figure dramatically.
