Great stuff, as always. So it's an Olympic year in 2024, which means Breanna Stewart, say, plays in Turkey (or wherever) from November to May. She has the Olympics from July 26 to Aug. 11, which will be a lot of games in a short time. Then the WNBA season, which will finish later (especially with 40 games). And Turkey again. It's pretty easy to see Stewart thinking "I need to take some time off eventually or my body will break down -- so 2024 looks like a good year to skip the WNBA."

Richard, great job as usual. Just to be clear, service time is actual seasons played. Johannes and Allemand have only played 2 seasons each even though they were spread out over 4 and 3 years respectively. Consequently, they won't be subject to prioritization until 2024. Is that correct?
