Fitz, Johnson and Robinson cut by Connecticut Sun
The Connecticut Sun waived rookies Rachele Fitz, Adrienne Johnson and Tahnee Robinson.
Fitz graduated from Marist in 2010 and was signed as an undrafted free agent. Johnson, a former Louisiana Tech star, was taken in the third round by Connecticut in April's draft. Robinson, who starred collegiately at Nevada, was a third-round pick by Phoenix and traded to Connecticut in exchange for the Sun's third-round pick in the 2012 draft.
The moves brings the Connecticut roster to 12, one over the WNBA maximum. Tonight's exhibition game against San Antonio will be a chance for veteran wing Kerri Gardin, second-year guard Allison Hightower and undrafted rookie post Stefanie Murphy to further make a push at earning a roster spot.
