I must say the Spurs’ fiesta court looks absolutely incredible in person and I have no idea why they ever went away from these colors.

Source confirms to me and @herhoopstats.com that unrestricted free agent Alyssa Thomas re-signed with the Phoenix Mercury for three-years, protected, $1,200,000/$1,200,000/$1,200,000.

Tiny bit above regular max for AT, but flat for 3 years. @seanahurd.bsky.social first with signing, I think. #WNBA

For at least one night, (probably) the biggest contract in WNBA history belongs to Bridget Carleton. #WNBA

(I don't know for certain how much they threw at the big names back in the day to join the W instead of the ABL)

more sports teams should sign players with the team name in their name

Was thinking same thing.

The Bruins did the “conference of champions” proud, no matter what the record books say.

The last time UConn scored 50 points or less? Their loss to South Carolina in the 2022 championship game. That was a 64-59 win for the Gamecocks.
