Welp I recorded this after a long day of work and said Odyssey Sims instead of Lexie Brown. I’m sorry, wrong 2024 Los Angeles Sparks guard. My brain is fried. Lost count of how many words I’ve translated today.

Alright Storm fans, I have a few questions jotted down for today’s press conference, but wanted to ask: what is something that you believe absolutely needs to be addressed by general manager Talisa Rhea and head coach Noelle Quinn? #WNBA #WNBAFreeAgency

In their first Super Bowl commercial since 1998, Nike bets on women’s sports, especially WBB stars, as they unveil a powerful ad campaign titled “So Win.” An unsurprising choice, since the WNBA was the faster growing brand in 2024. My latest on Forbes: www.forbes.com/sites/robert...

There will be ads at tonight’s Super Bowl for weight loss drugs. They're receiving pushback for calling out the healthcare industry for failing to address what they call “America’s deadliest epidemic.” But as I wrote last week, there are different reasons those ads actually deserve to be called out.

Is it crazy to think of a three-way trade involving Seattle, Dallas and Chicago? Satou to Seattle, Jewell to Chicago, 3rd pick to Dallas?

Jewell Loyd chose not to address questions regarding her future in free agency, potentially leaving Seattle and the current state of her relationship with the front office. Said she is focused on Unrivaled right now.
