Zena and Sabreena are joined by Brendan Glasheen, play-by-play announcer for the Connecticut Sun and Unrivaled. Together, they dive into the WNBA semifinals, discussing the performances of the top MVP vote-getters in their respective Game 1s, plus what adjustments the Aces and the Mercury need to make if they’re going to notch a win next time around.
Then, it’s a deep dive into Unrivaled: the impact the league’s first season had on the WNBA’s current season, and some big changes to expect when Unrivaled’s second season rolls around in January.
Finally, Sabreena quizzes Brendan on his memory of the 2025 Sun season.
