WNBA'S X FACTOR PLAYERS



X FACTOR: (n) a variable in a given situation that could have the most significant impact on the outcome.

As it relates to basketball, specifically the W, an X-Factor Player is one who shines almost unexpectedly, out of nowhere, to attain victory her team.   You know in the back of your mind that they have the talent and the attitude to win, but you don't expect them to drop 20 points or grab 10 rebounds a game.  These are players who may get slept on every now and again while the opposing team focuses on the stars.

I got nine on it.  Got it good!   In no particular order.  ;-)    Stats are through June 5th.  







DAMIRIS DANTAS (MIN)

Love this young lady.  Hungry to make a mark.

JESSICA BRELAND (CHI)

She almost doesn't make the list because I've come to expect her to perform exceptionally well now.  But I did not forsee this kind of play at the start of the season so she makes the list.

RENEE MONTGOMERY (CON)

Renee has more moves than a dancefloor but more importantly she seems to have worked on self control and discipline in recent years.
