WNBA Fan Clubs

The WNBA held their draft lottery on Tuesday. The five teams that didn’t qualify for the 2008 season playoffs participated in the lottery (Atlanta, Washington, Chicago, Minnesota and Phoenix). The remaining teams will fall in line with their 2008 overall season record.

Atlanta had the lottery bounce their way and won the first pick for the 2009 WNBA Draft. They also had the first pick on Monday during the Houston Comet’s dispersal draft where they selected Sancho Lyttle.
