Joyce Edwards on Oklahoma's gameplan to clog the paint & the play of her guards:
"They tried to take me & Madina away & they kinda did. But we're not no one-man wrecking crew. It's not just me & Madina on this team. You have to guard everybody, and they didn't guard everybody."
I asked A'ja Wilson what's impressed her most about Raven Johnson's career at South Carolina
"We're talking about somebody that can count on her hand how many times she's lost -- that doesn't get talked about enough for me. ... I'm so proud of her."
Full answer from A'ja ⬇️
both knowing jackie and dijonai personally they would never do them like that but i just know syd and tp would have so many jokes ready about this whole drama 😭😭😭
Today, Josh Hart advocated for the players to get a piece of the expansion fees, which are entirely pocketed by owners and are estimated at $10 billion apiece. Seattle and Las Vegas are in line to get new NBA franchises.

Shakira Austin tonight:
15 PTS | 21 REB | 5 AST | 7/13 FG
She powered Shanxi to a dominant 94–58 win over Wuhan in the first round of the playoffs.
In just her debut, Austin already looks like the difference-maker Shanxi has been missing — a true leader capable of pushing this team back to championship glory.
The last time Shanxi won it all, Maya Moore was still leading the way. Now, Austin might be next in line.

Marcus Smart says he takes pride in being a locker room leader for the Lakers:
“LeBron and Luka don’t really talk as much, they be locked in. Deandre Ayton’s my guy, he’s kind of all over the place, so I regulate that and make sure everyone else is good.”
