Connecticut Sun waives former UNC star Jessica Breland

Posted May 9, 2012
The Connecticut Sun has trimmed its pre-season roster to 13 players by cutting two players, including former North Carolina star Jessica Breland. The 6-foot-3 Breland was picked up by the Sun last July after being waived by New York, but saw action in just one game. Breland was the first pick in the second round of the 2011 draft, despite having to sit out a year in college while undergoing treatment for Hodgkin's lymphoma (WRAL Sports Fan)
