***ISU WNBA Thread***
- Thread starter mred
- Start date
I hate these league passes - is not available on WNBA app because it is on some local channel in Chicago that we do not get in Iowa.
Maddening to watch Minnesota's "offense."
Guards dribbling into double teams, throwing/kicking it away, and/or just chucking up terrible shots -- all while Carleton stands in the corner. If it weren't for her rebounding ability, I'm not sure she'd get more than 1-2 touches per quarter.

I thought it would be better once they got rid of Odyssey Sims who seemed to play like she'd be fined if she passed the ball to Carleton but it really has not. I'd swear there are cliques of players who share only with the besties in their clique.

The term he used does make his comment rather interesting when you think about it lol. Sometimes even mistakes can have interesting outcomes.
We've got ourselves a starter in Dallas! Way to go Steph!
She didn’t score a point, but had nine boards and 4 blocks in 32 minutes.
She only shot once. Odd stats for WNBA post. Other than the Brazil national team she has not played much against athletic posts. Will be interesting to see how she develops her game, she did start and played 32 minutes so looks like they have faith in her.
Kalani Brown, ex-Baylor, came off the bench at center for Wings and had 11 pts 9 rb in 19 minutes. Wings also have 6'-7" Teaira McCowan so lots of tall bigs. Since both Soares and McCowan started I am assuming McCowan was guarding Rookie Angel Reese who played forward in this game for opponent Sky and had 11 pts 9 rb in 25 minutes.

Steph played mostly the 4 and some 3. Ogunbowale is a MAJOR chucker so took a majority of the shots. Steph was mostly on the perimeter and did not have a lot of opportunities, she was mostly a screener and used for ball reversal. She did get switched on guard (mostly Mabry) and did a very good job of defending against smaller players.
Thanks. Since most of us didn't get to watch, did she guard Reese any and was Reese playing F like I assumed?
In a NIL like deal the players on the Las Vegas Aces are getting $100K from the local tourism group. WNBA is probably going to nix it though. Will be interesting to see where this goes.

The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority is giving every Aces player $100,000 in sponsorship, but the WNBA is reviewing the deal.

She did at times and had pretty good success against her. Steph's length gave her problems inside.

14 pts (5-8 FG, 2-5 3pt, 2-2 FT)

She's sort of their reliable Swiss Army Knife or "glue' player. She's done a great job of adapting and fitting in compared to her role in college.
