High Endurance Players
#14 just keeps going and going and GOING and....
What does it mean to have a high average minutes per game? It means three things:
a) that you have a lot of talent,
b) that you have a lot of endurance, and
c) that you avoid drawing fouls.
Any coach would want a player that was good at all three. As a matter of fact, when you look at the WNBA carrier leaders in minutes per game, it's a virtual all-star list. The following are the players that you can't get to leave the court for love nor money - nor would you want them to leave.
