Unless Candace Parker’s arm falls off between now and the next few minutes, she’ll be the No. 1 pick by the Los Angeles Sparks.

If you had any doubt Candace Parker would be going No. 1 in Wednesday’s WNBA draft, read this.
“I don’t think the shoulder will be a problem,” (Los Angeles Sparks coach Michael) Cooper said. “But even if it is, she’ll still be a No. 1 pick because she can definitely play basketball.”

Just glanced over at our TV showing the Tennessee-Texas A&M regional final and it appeared that Candace Parker suffered a shoulder problem. She was shown visibly grimacing while continuing to play and was eventually taken to the locker room.
I’ll have more once I can sit and check it out further.
