For some, leading their team to an NCAA title might be a star-making moment. But Paige Bueckers — whom the Dallas Wings are expected to select first overall in the 2025 WNBA draft — was already a star by then https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/04/14/basketball/paige-bueckers-star-power/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #basketball #paigebueckers #uconn #wnba
Made It Out Podcast has primarily sapphic guests and they talk about various life issues from a queer woman’s perspective and usually it’s more introspective but they want to support women’s sports leagues in spite of the host knowing very little about sports. Once in a while they invite an athlete like Ali Krieger (former footballer and current broadcaster).
Today’s guest is Kate Fagen (former basketball athlete & ESPN journalist) and she does a really great job explaining the history and growth of women’s sports from a queer perspective.

Interesting article about the evolution of style in women's basketball.
I wish I had a stylist to prep me for pickleball games (or, just, life).

@antifaintl I can probably name 20 female athletes. But they're all #WNBA players because that's the only sport I follow.
This Chicago Sky deal will come down to whether or not Atkins sticks around for more than the 1 year she’s signed for. Trading the 3rd pick in the draft for a one-and-done vet would seem to me to be pretty foolish. But maybe they have a whispered promise from her. I don’t know. #WNBA #ChicagoSky #WNBAMastodon #SkyTown #WNBATrades

Wow. The WNBA off-season staying wild! Really thought the Liberty had a great shot at Satou, though she was maybe never the best fit. I wonder what New York’s ultimate plan is? #WNBA #WNBAMastodon #WNBATrades #PhoenixMercury #IndianaFever #DallasWings #SatouSabally #NewYorkLiberty

Really gonna miss Sloot; she’s always been a favorite of mine. But I understand she’s near the end of her career and going home to play a mentoring role in Chicago with their young, future stars makes sense. I’m just happy she’s going back to the other WNBA squad I root for.

“Women's basketball has seen an overdue surge in popularity in recent years…. Now, a new three-on-three league called Unrivaled is building on that success.” #WNBA #WomensBasketball #Unrivaled #interviews

As the NBA deals with flagging viewership, the league can learn a thing or two from new women's 3-on-3 league Unrivaled that will help it keep and grow an audience. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/01/21/basketball/unrivaled-nba-fans/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #basketball #unrivaled #nba #wnba
