UConn in the WNBA

Nika Muhl missed her third game with the Seattle Storm. Somebody dropped the ball here.

Wait until Nika misses the Indiana/Caitlin Clark game Wednesday! Fans will be ticked. Probably not Fever fans though.

Kiah has been leaner for the past year or two.

Thanx...

Edwards has the whole package except making bunnies. Sho made several really good cuts to the hoop and missed at least two wide-open lay-ins. Also ripped a ball away from Magbegor and failed to put that (much more traffic) one in.

She’s gonna be a really good one.

Click bait clown. He loves screaming headlines like - ARE THEY CHEATING? (about Las Vegas) and CAITLIN CLARK"S COACH IS RUINING HER. The basketball tabloid.

The way Alanna Smith has been playing, it may be difficult to get her starting job back. Diamond Miller has had a slow start. I wonder if they will consider starting Dorka and Alanna?

They certainly should.

I agree. But at the same time he raises some good points. This should not happen in a professional league.

I did not know that the owner of the Liberty had been fined $500k for flying his team aboard a charter flight. (His plane I believe) And Investigating the Aces because a supporter wants to give each player $100k? Sometimes it looks like the WNBA is their own worst enemy.

They are the definition of self sabotage.

Ouch! Third round picks almost never earn roster spots, so she was essentially given away for free....

On an upbeat note for Nika she made the cover of a magazine back home in Croatia.

The May issue of Matica is full of excellent content that shows the lives of Croatian emigrants around the world. The title story of the phenomenal Croatian basketball player Niki Mühl who was recently selected to the women's NBA league describes the true sporting success of Nike and her sister Hana who also plays basketball for one of the American universities. Nika reveals all the details of how she got to the most respected basketball league in the world and what it is like to live away from the family that is in Croatia.

Tres cool.

The early returns on Edwards have been positive, and her game is translating to the professional level. She has brought energy to the floor and can defend multiple positions out to the arc. Coaches have raved about her maturity and basketball IQ, which are no surprise for those coming out of Geno Auriemma’s program.

Not sure what the deal is with Lou and the Wings. She's not being given much of an opportunity to show what she can do. Maybe she is still learning the system, but they gave away the last two games late when they could have used her 3-point shooting. Not feeling like Dallas is a good fit for her right now. Hope the future proves me wrong.

The game I saw the other night against the Chicago Sky, Lou played for like 2:36 seconds or something like that. In that short time on the court, she fouled the Chicago players three times. That is all the time that she was afforded!

Dallas went 2-16 from 3 in one of their games, lord knows why they didn't put Lou in.

Defense. It’s a big adjustment from college

Julie Vanloo speaks almost unaccented English -- impressive for someone in her first year in the US.
