This weekend ESPN commemorated the 30th anniversary of the inaugural WNBA game, running it back with the Sparks vs. the Liberty. Nneka Ogwumike’s winning 3-pointer wasn’t just a buzzer beater–it was bigger than the moment, and we break down how it symbolizes the evolution of WNBA history.
Next, we reminisce on our highlights in one of the best-matched Commissioner’s Cups yet: Caitlin Clark's dagger over the Mystics, Sonia Citron's incredible game-winner, and Olivia Miles' huge effort against the Aces are top of mind. With the Liberty’s wobbles figuring out their lineup, do the Aces have an edge in the final?
Plus, Autumn Johnson and Jordan Robinson fangirl out in some recent WNBA highlights.
