The Lynx drew three aces in the 2008 WNBA draft. Two more would suffice this year.
Coach Don Zierden's Lynx have the Nos. 4, 9, 15 and 30 picks in today's draft, which starts at 2 p.m. at the NBA Entertainment Studios in Secaucus, N.Y.
"I don't think [2008] will happen again; we got extremely lucky," Zierden said. "The draft is inexact. Last year we hit pretty good."
Nicky Anosike became the team's starting center as a rookie. Candice Wiggins was named the league's Sixth Player of the Year. Charde Houston became the team's second spark off the highest-scoring bench in league history.
To prepare for the 2009 draft, Zierden and the rest of the Lynx's braintrust have huddled the past three days pondering the perpetual question: Take the best player available or try to fill a need?
