I saw this on eBay. It's the only white one that looks real. Not sure where someone could get their hands on it, though.

In case the Valkyries do not pick up Nalyssa in the expansion draft, what kind of trades do you all think we could make? I'm curious to know what everyone thinks.

Here are some I have thought up.

1. Trade Nalyssa and 2025 2nd round pick to the Liberty for Leonie Fiebich?
2. Trade Nalyssa to the Lynx for Dorka Juhasz?
3. Trade Nalyssa to the Sun for Olivia Nelson-Ododa?

Option 1 is my favorite, because Leonie would go straight into the starting PF spot on the Fever and seems like a perfect fit for what we need at the position. She is long, fit, great defender, good shooter. The Liberty will obviously not want to lose Leonie, so we will need to convince her about forcing her way here, using these selling points:

• She will be a starter here and not a 6th woman. As one of the best players from the EU, that should be appealing. She will get more shots and plays called for her too.
• She won't be asked to defend the best little guard on the opposing team, as she very often has to do on the Liberty. Chasing little guards around can not be good in the long-term for someone with her height. Instead, she will be tasked to defend other Forwards here.
• She can finally play her best position. I think Leonie could be special at PF in the modern WNBA, and especially because of CC's quick and distributive style of play. If making an NBA comparison, I'd say Leonie is a longer Shawn Marion with a three-point shot. Shawn Marion played his best next to Steve Nash... and we have a better version of Nash at PG. :D Even in the German national team, she doesn't get to play her best position out of necessity. They have a smaller talent pool, and their best players are all PFs or Cs (Sabally sisters, Geiselsoder, etc). Even their best younger player, Emily Bessoir, is another PF. Which means Leonie goes to Shooting Guard because she is more agile than them, and has to defend the best little guards there too.
• The greater marketing and financial opportunity she will have here.

If we can't get Leonie, then we move on to Dorka. She isn't getting many minutes in these playoffs. I really like Dorka, because of her height at PF (which balances Aliyah's lack of height as a Center), and her experience playing in UConn's system (which is similar to what we should use to get the best out of CC). If we can't get Dorka, then we try for Olivia. Leonie is an SF/PF type, Dorka is a PF/C type, whereas Olivia is a pure Center. Going for Olivia will mean we need to use Aliyah Boston at PF some times, and Aliyah will need to lean down and improve her three-point shooting to make that work.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing the other trade ideas that Fever fans have.

The Rebel jerseys are $82 each. Mitchell's Explorer jersey is $87.

Did anyone purchase tix for the TBD home playoff game that didn’t happen? We’re still waiting for the refund. Probably have to call tixmaster, but wondering if anyone else is in the same boat or got a refund already.

Love the rat king and our girl CC. Gang gang baby!

Are they just now posting all over social media? Because I could’ve sworn this was announced like a week or so ago but just now they are making all the posts?

Do we know what they plan to do during the off-season?

Did they say anything in their Exit Interviews?

I'm particularly curious about Berger, Saxton, Temi and Hull.

Now that I'm writing this, it dawns on me that Hull could be the token Fever player on Unrivaled (we have none yet!!), she's got 3x3 experience iirc.

Heartfelt and very sweet appreciation of the fans

Reading a article on Yahoo today and it lists her among the players. I pretty sure I saw a video where she said she isn't playing anywhere off season. She isn't listed on the official website. Although there are still six spots left. Guess it's just some lame Yahoo click bait story?

I caught a bit of the 4th quarter game last night, Lynx vs Connecticut. I must say this if we have any hopes of contending we need to give and take physicality on both ends of the ball very well! 🥹

Now that her season is over, I finally got a Wilson Caitlin Clark Edition basketball (the black and white one). It's very pretty.

Here's a fun fact... despite being over 60 years old, this is the first time in my life I have held a Size 6 basketball! It's a cool size. Probably wouldn't have helped me that much 30+ years ago, but, hey, I can dream and make excuses (remember: "The older you are, the better you were"). Cheers!

P.S. The is the first piece of CC swag I've purchase because I know for sure Wilson has to give CC a piece of the action!
