Cameron Brink went at No. 2 overall and Alissa Pili went at No. 8 overall.
Gonzaga’s Brynna Maxwell went No. 13 overall. Must’ve been a surprise as she wasn’t invited.

Brink drafted ahead of Cardoso, Pueyo and Truing drafted ahead of Kitley... I really don't understand the WNBA.

I live in the Spokane area so hopefully can give some perspective on Maxwell.
Without question one of the absolute best 3 point shooters in women's college basketball.
Shoots right around 50% from the three point area with the quickest release I have ever seen.
Tall enough to be able to get her shot off regularly and has a high release point.
Has an excellent mid-range shot as well.
However, I was still shocked to see her go so high because she is limited in other ways.
If she plays with a team where other players on her team often are double teamed, she would be a tremendous asset.

With that pick of Maxwell, I couldn't help but think of the way Allie Quigley's career developed with the Sky.

Forbes and Davis from USC went late in the 3rd Round. So did Angel Jackson, who started her career at USC.

The average isn't quite accurate for the "youngsters"...
"The top four picks are guaranteed a base salary of $76,535 in their first year. This salary sees a slight increase over the next two years, reflecting structured growth. Players drafted between the 5th and 8th positions will earn $73,439, while those selected from 9th to 12th will receive $70,344. Second-round picks start at $67,249."

Likely a loss in pay for some, ala Hugh McElhenny's claim for his rookie season with the 49ers.
