Pretty sad news out of Houston as the four-time WNBA champion Comets are disbanding. Reports of the financial issues facing the franchise have been circulating so it is not completely unexpected but still unfortunate.

There will be a dispersal draft on Monday but don't expect the Connecticut Sun to be too active in acquiring a former Houston player. Normally dispersal drafts are based on record meaning the Sun would pick 10th. With Tina Thompson an unrestricted free agent, the players who figure to draw the most interest in the dispersal draft are Sancho Lyttle and former Rutgers star Matee Ajavon. Michelle Snow, Hamchetou Maiga-Ba, Mwadi Mabika and Latasha Byears are also unrestricted free agents. Former Connecticut Sun guard Shannon Johnson is among the players available in the dispersal draft.

Switching gears back to college, the first NCAA stats came out on Monday and it should go down as a huge shocker that UConn is dominating in many categories. The Huskies are in the top 10 in nine different categories and lead the nation in scoring offense (94.8), field-goal percentage (57.5), assists per game (23.8), assist/turnover ratio (1.57) and fewest fouls per game (12.4). The only UConn players in the top 10 in individual categories are Tina Charles, who is second with a field-goal percentage of 67.9 and Caroline Doty, who is eighth with a 3-point percentage of 54.5.
