Where is Ekaterinburg?

http://www.fiba.com/competition/world_cup_wom/docs/rosters.pdf


For the FIBA's women's world cup (not to be confused with the FIFA women's
world cup) UMMC Ekaterinburg has a team with a roster that includes:

Svetlana Abrosimova
Elena Baranova
Tameka Dixon
Yolanda Griffith
Delisha Milton
Ticha Penichero
Andrea Stinson
Sheryl Swoopes
Natalie Williams

Now who doesn't get to start?  See what happens with unlimited free agency?


Volgaburmash SGAU-Samara doesn't have quite so impressive a lineup.
Chamique Holdsclaw and Mwadi Mabika (the name is reversed on the roster)
are the only names I recognize on their roster.

The Canberra Capitals have Lauren Jackson.

US Valenciennes Olympic has Allison Sharlene Feaster.

Woorbank Haesane has Demya Walker.

Mambas de Mozambique has Zinobia Machanguana.

Sao Paulo Futebal Clube (Futebal?) has Janeth Dos Antos Arcain and Regina
Aparecida De Souza Melo.

WNBA select all-Stars has a roster full of players I don't know anything
about with names I can't pronounce or spell.

Odds on favorites would have to be UMMC Ekaterinburg.
