The Portland Thorns lead the NWSL in most offensive categories despite their problems finishing. The Thorns are creating chances at an astounding rate, which should be no surprise considering the attacking talent they have at their disposal.
Crystal Dunn is finding her feet in Portland, Lindsey Horan is playing at an elite level, and Christine Sinclair is the greatest international goalscorer of all time, not to mention the likes of Rocky Rodriguez, Simone Charley, Morgan Weaver, and Sophia Smith. Despite all of this attacking talent, the player that leads not only the Thorns, but the league, in chance creation is a left back.
