Zena, Ben, and Sabreena talk through the latest developments in WNBA coaching news and CBA negotiations, including Sandy Brondello’s likely hire as the first ever coach of the Toronto Tempo and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver’s comments regarding salaries and revenue-sharing in the W.
Then, they turn their attention to some burning questions for the upcoming NCAA women’s basketball season: can anyone catch reigning champs UConn? How will USC fare without superstar JuJu Watkins? Who are the freshmen and transfers to keep an eye on? And, when all is said and done, who might move on from college ball to become the No. 1 draft pick in 2026?
