The Athletic’s Sabreena Merchant joins Sarah for a wide-ranging WNBA conversation, breaking down some of the biggest storylines through the first month or so of the season. They discuss the impact of rookies, including Olivia Miles and Azzi Fudd, unpack the Minnesota Lynx’s continued success even without star Napheesa Collier, try to keep up with the Chennedy Carter drama, and preview the Liberty-Aces Commissioners Cup final later this month. Plus, three teams in one year, the cherry on top of a stellar season, and a peek into the WNBA’s electoral process.
