@danwolken.bsky.social really enjoyed your column on Caitlin today, think it’s absolutely the right take sports.yahoo.com/wnba/article...
Caitlin Clark just wants to shut up and dribble — and it's time we respect that
In an era where every athlete is supposed to have an opinion on everything, Clark just wants to ball. Her reward for not taking a stance on controversial issues? Getting attacked from both sides.

The Valkyries, in their second competitive summer, have gotten a lot right in a hurry. ✅ A Sephora-sponsored practice facility ✅ A posh 18,000-seat arena ✅ On-call cat-sitters Golden State does what some others still don’t after decades. They are the glitch that is a feature.
i appreciate Sarah Kustok's amazement at Chelsea Gray's behind-the-back pass, but I feel like Gray does this every game now. It's practically by design.
Becky Hammon always says that A'ja's blocks have the highlight value of dunks, and today is a great example of that.
Kelsey Plum talking to the media for the first time since being traded to the Mercury, confirms that she's available for 20 min tonight. Notes that she hasn't practiced with the team or even played for five weeks: "It's a cocktail for success as far as I'm concerned."
it's a shame that saying Bridget Carleton is on fire is too on the nose, because it's exactly what's happening
Love seeing that clip of Reeve talking to Cunningham. Sort of person that, where possible, wants to educate and explain not just castigate. Yeah, some people are going to be beyond help. But if you can change some minds rather than just write people off, that's a real positive. At least worth a try.
Never expected the biggest bright spot of the Liberty season to be Han Xu, but she’s got a cannon
Tyler Marsh said the game-winning play is one he picked up when on Becky Hammon's staff in Las Vegas.
Feels like every CBS Saturday WNBA game has been an absolute banger this season 
I love Tash celebrating with Syd while Syd realizes there is still time on the clock
Chicago’s time management in these close games… I can’t
This guy would win in a landslide if he ran for office. I promise you there are SO MANY voters waiting for the "Were going through every file and we will find all of you" candidate to take on the New Gestapo. Establishment Dems will never hold anyone accountable. They had their chance and blew it

Like this deal for Toronto a lot, Connecticut must really believe Kliundikova is coming to the W next year (and at least a couple after that) Even if the Sun believed that Morrow / Edwards couldn’t coexist, feels like this is on the low end of Morrow’s value
Refs have a hard job If A’ja Wilson is already walking in the other direction, it’s probably a good sign that she touched the ball last. Wild call.
Meanwhile—is there a better example of the players being vastly underpaid than Silver saying he couldn’t plan the season until LeBron announced where he was playing
FIFA has a funny set-up where every country gets exactly one vote which means small countries are way overrepresented and you can hang on to power by promising little giveaways to those countries and their reps. Thankfully no similar system exists in the United States government, that would be bad
DiJonai Carrington says she will be a game day decision for the foreseeable future. Could make her debut for the Sky as early as tomorrow’s game against Connecticut.
The WNBA trade deadline is Aug. 2. Here's what I'm hearing coming out of a busy All-Star weekend: www.nytimes.com/athletic/747...
What I’m hearing on Napheesa Collier, Kelsey Plum and other WNBA trade deadline targets
The Sparks are at risk of losing Plum, an All-Star averaging almost 24 points per game, for nothing.

Sandy Brondello says Kiki Rice is questionable for tomorrow’s @tempobasketball.bsky.social game with the Lynx. She did practice today. They’ll see how she feels post practice.
