Referees sometimes overlook fouls committed against bigger and stronger players because they feel they can play through it. I knew it would be tough for South Carolina tonight because of this. It's happened to them all season but I don't like it in a game of this magnitude.
I read the newspaper to find the truth in news. When I get to the sport section, I find truth missing. The
@wnba
is the best women's professional sports league and so many publications simply refuse to inform the public about it. Another reason in your decline in circulation.
Congratulations on your retirement, Candace Parker. Thanks for gracing us with the finest message of a WNBA post game presser ever. Enjoy retirement. 💫

As a former player, now women’s basketball coach and a long-time fan of women's basketball, it's frustrating to hear some of these male commentators, analyst and podcast host share their opinions about one game when they haven’t watched WBB AT ALL all season.

The nose ring issue led to Notre Dame’s Hidalgo missing 5 mins of play during this game . For any athlete accustomed to wearing the same item in every match, having this happen does impact their performance. . This should not have happened.

The first time since 1998, NC State has beaten UConn.
There was zero answer for Saniya Rivers today. Unbelievably dominant performance against No 2 Huskies.
33 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 blocks, 3 steals.

You know Skylar Diggins-Smith would have fit in really well with this 2024 Olympic team roster. Would have loved for her to go back and have a better experience. We have a dominant team and will win

It's great to see

finding a spot in this league. Super excited for her, she's really been underrated at her position. I've been a fan of her pt guard play since her college days.
As a former player, & coach in the W & NBA. It's hard to be unbiased in this business. I believe it was more about their biases towards the polarizing narratives and opinions than doubting her talent: Angel was a double-double machine led LSU to a title and played both ends of

Not now not ever...Not only bots but voters making fun of our league. Please give up your voter rights if you aren't going to take our league serious.
Hard to believe it’s been 26 years since my 1998 team made it to the Final Four. It was a special time for me, my teammates, Coach Yow, our family, friends, and fans. Now, 26 years later, we’re back in the Final Four! I couldn’t be more proud. 🐺❤️😍😊

It is difficult to get my girls to stay focused after a bad call or a bad turnover. So I encourage them to breathe and slow down and focus on the moment. One mistake doesn't decide the outcome of the game unless you dwell on it.

Got a chance to join a Zoom with some of my Wolfpack sisters tonight to watch the game. Now they're saying we have to do it every game. Athletes are so superstitious, we never lose it...🤷🏾♀️
I’m confused with everyone surprised about the physicality of these games like it’s not the Finals. This happens in any sports when it’s win or go home…

In other news: The LA Times article about the UCLA vs LSU is another example of why DEI is so important, however there are many that will continue to dismiss the need and importance of it out of fear of I don't know what, but people fear what they don't understand. 😴
FINAL:
N.C. State: 79
Wake Forest: 77
D.J. Burns turns it on for the Pack in the second half as he finishes with 31 points and 9 rebounds as the Wolfpack complete the comeback.
Jackie Young's play reminded me of former LA Sparks All Star Mwadi Mabika today. I was watching the game like who does she remind me of 🤔 & it just came to me.

"Hypothetically speaking, how did they miss her dominating the paint throughout her collegiate career? Low key, Covid happened and one offensive put back away from Aliyah Boston having 3 championships.

it’s so crazy seeing how ppl are surprised by Aliyah Boston’s performance so far in the W. It’s honestly so absurd, because the ppl should’ve known! They should’ve definitely known!
My girls had an off night despite wanting to play really well. I'm trying to teach them that when that happens they can't give up. With the right attitude you can fight back and come back strong. You may not win but it builds team character.
