lineups. #1 Aces top 3 in minutes: Kelsey, Jackie & Chelsea Gray all guards and all over 32.4/min/game. Here are the rest of the teams sorted by mpg which colors my determinations if they have a 3 guard or 2 guard lineup:
#2 Sky: 1 Copper, 4 Sloot, 5 Quigly - usually three guard lineup
#3 Sun: Top mins are the bigs so two guard lineup but 6 of 10 in mpg-guards
#4 Storm: Consistent 2 guard lineup with Jewell & Bird at guards
#5 Mystic: 1 Cloud, 2 Atkins, 5 Walker-Kimbrough although they start 3 bigs
#6 Dream: 1 Howard, 2 McDonald, 3 Wallace, 4 Wheeler-starts 3 guards
#7 Wings: 1 Alisha Gray, 2 Arike, 4 Marina-starts 3 guards
#8 Liberty: 1 Sabrina,3 Whitcomb,4 Dangerfield,5 Allen-started 3 gds 13/17 gms
#9 Sparks: Mostly 2 guard lineup since KLS started at Wing (11/15 games)
#10 Mercury: 1 Sky, 4 Taurasi, 5 Diamond, 6 Peddy, 7 Sophie-3 guards start
#11 Fever: 1 Mitchell, 3 Vivians, 4 Robinson-definitely 3 guards start
#12 Lynx: Consistent 2 guard lineup with KMac & MoJeff at guards

Given the stats it's clear that 2/3 of the teams have at least 3 of their players top 5 in minutes and sometimes more (New York & Atlanta). Also only 5 teams even start 3 bigs so it would have made more sense to start 3 guards in the All-star game. If so Sky and Jewell or Arike would have been starters. They all three better be reserves.

Jewell at 3; Skylar at 14. Whoa.

Looks like media hasn't looked beyond Bird and Stewie at Seattle (although the fans get it), at the expense of Jewell. And fan vote didn't help Arike or Kelsey Mitchell.

However, fans, media and players all agree that Kelsey Plum and Jackie Young are blowing it out of the water. My gut is that those two will move from the U.S.A. 3x3 team to the 5x5 team. Soon.

Skylar & Candace by their fellow players as compared to fans and media.

...and Jewell, who seems to not ge the attention she deserves. Always been a player's player.
