No Offseason
•June 10th, 2025
DESCRIPTION
Ben brings us behind-the-scenes inside the United Center this past weekend, when the Indiana Fever handed the Chicago Sky another big loss – and veteran guard Courtney Vandersloot went down with a season-ending ACL tear. Then, Zena brings us over to the Bay Area, to detail the Valkyries first blowout win – against a frustrated Aces team. Next up, Chantel breaks down everything you need to know about the landmark House Settlement case, which will allow colleges to officially pay student athletes. And finally, as part of our Pride Month interview series, one of the all-time greats, Sue Bird, stops by to talk podcasting, WNBA ownership, sports collectibles, and why Caitlin Clark is such a good passer.
