LSU star Angel Reese has officially declared for the WNBA, and she did so on her terms by announcing the decision via Instagram on Wednesday. Angel Reese, the Bayou Barbie, began her career at the University of Maryland before transferring to LSU for her junior year. That season, she averaged a double-double of 23 points and 15 rebounds while becoming a standout on and off the court—from her social media presence to gracing the cover of SLAM 243 alongside teammate and star Flau’jae Johnson. “I just wanted to figure out who Angel Reese really is,” Reese told us back in 2023, prior to winning th ..read more

It’s June 8, 2023, and CT Sun star Dewanna Bonner is in her bag. Like, really in her 41-piece, double combo fries on the side type of bag. Cut into the paint for an easy two? Go right ahead. Beat everyone down the floor? You’re allowed. Las Vegas Aces head coach Becky Hammon was furious, and she let her team know about it postgame. That appeared to serve as a wake up call for the Aces. Challenges were few and far between before a trip to Connecticut early in the campaign. It was exactly what the ball club needed in order to realize what it was going to take in order to return to where it was l ..read more

Las Vegas Aces point guard Chelsea Gray is more than just a “basic point guard”. She is the WNBA’s “Point God” or as the Aces have crowned her, “Point GAWDDDDD.”  The eleventh overall selection in the 2014 WNBA Draft has emerged into a bonafide star and an offensive threat on the floor. She seemingly visualizes her next two or three moves before they even happen (and definitely before opponents know what to expect). Behind the back pass from behind the basket? No problem. No-look dime from outside the arc? Walk in the park. “I try to be that calm within the storm, whether it is a gam ..read more
