RE: Morgan's Knees. For every Shea Ralph and Jackie Stiles, there is a Sue Bird, or Nykesha Sales. Or more recently, Achonwa. Morgan has the advantage of proving she has a pro-ready game after her injuries. For athletes, particularly women athletes, leg injuries are basically inevitable. It think she will be drafted high.
To be sure, Morgan will be physically evaluated by any potential drafting team to make sure they know what they are getting. In all likelihood, the bigger issue with Morgan is whether she will play year-round and get the big money overseas, or only play for either the WNBA or overseas. I think one of the reasons Kara Lawson has such a long career, despite numerous injuries, is that she has the luxury of not having to play overseas.
