Atlanta Dream Expansion Draft

February 6th, the Atlanta Dream will began organizing their new franchise with the select expansion draft.

"Atlanta has the ability to select from a designated pool of available players as determined by each of the other 13 teams. Prior to the Expansion Draft, each of those 13 clubs must designate a maximum of six players who will be “protected” and therefore not available for selection in the Expansion Draft. Atlanta may choose one player from each club and may do so without regard to current contract status provided that the Dream selects no more than one unrestricted free agent. In the event that Atlanta selects an unrestricted free agent, they would have the right to designate that player as a "core" player – gaining exclusive negotiating rights in exchange for an offer of a one-year, fully guaranteed contract at the maximum salary. "
