The Sky will select fifth in the 2010 WNBA draft.

The ninth annual WNBA Draft Lottery was conducted Thursday to establish the first five picks of the draft. The Minnesota Lynx will have the first and fourth pick. 

Minnesota had 428 chances out of 1,000 to receive the first overall selection by virtue of owning New York's combinations (261) in addition to its own (167). The Sacramento Monarchs, who had 420 chances, will have the second pick followed by the Connecticut Sun, Minnesota Lynx and Sky. Chicago had 76 chances out of 1000 to receive the first pick. 

The Sky finished the 2009 season with a 16-18 record, just missing a spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs. Candice Dupree led the team in both scoring and rebounding with 15.7 points and 7.9 rebounds per game.

I appreciate you for maintaining such a informative website. this site happens to be not only knowledgeable but also very creative too. There normally are a limited number of people who are capable of write technical stuff that creatively. we keep searching for information on something like this. We ourselves have looked through several blogs to find knowledge regarding this.Looking for much more information from you !!

Sweet. I hope they take that one player who makes all the baskets.
