AUBURN HILLS, Michigan (Ticker) -- The Detroit Shock look to
begin the season on a positive note when they host the league's
only champion, the Houston Comets, Saturday at the Palace of
Auburn Hills. The Shock will attempt to rebound from another non-playoff season when they begin under new coach Greg Williams after firing Nancy Lieberman-Cline. They welcome back Wendy Palmer's 13.8 points per game and hope rookie Deanna Nolan, the Shock's first-round draft choice, can make an immediate impact. Houston is 1-1 on the season after dropping the league opener to the Los Angeles Sparks on Monday. It rebounded with an 82-78 victory at Indiana on Thursday. Tina Thompson and Janeth Arcain each posted career-highs of 26 points in the win. These teams meet once more on June 7 in Houston.
