Dewanna Bonner This young lady deserves the world! She is too good of a human being for what is now the new Indiana Fever base! I am glad she came to that realization and put herself FIRST! I respect what she wanted to do, but it was not her responsibility!
American Olympic champion sprinter Wilma Rudolph was born today in 1940. A polio survivor, she was a bronze medal winner in 1956 in Melbourne. Rudolph claimed three gold medals at the 1960 Rome summer games. Following her Olympic triumphs, she actively supported civil rights causes. She died in 1994
Bonner is already super successful, which is why the Fever wanted/needed her. The level of toxicity in that environment, she deserves better & should play her remaining years in happiness/peace, not chaos. It's not her responsibility to try positively influence/fix that base over there.
I was PERPLEXED/pissed that DeWanna Bonner went to the #Fever to begin with! She's towards the end of her career, go out happy & where you are loved! That toxic environment that is the fever... she deserves so much better. So does Sydney Colson & Aliyah Boston!
Timeline cleanse πππππ
He wants to do it on his own, he has something to prove! I don't want him profiting off Nola's hard work.
Wishing you the very best!
I am sooooo happpppppy for her! Go Bree!!!
Dallas Wings played a great game. I still believe the coach needs to be replaced. I hate saying this about 1st time head coaches, because they need time for growth, but he does not fit well with this team, they could be phenomenal. They might as well throw this season w/hopes of drafting Betts π€·πΏββοΈ
WNBA Social media is exhausting after every Fever game! Regarding Sophie, suspend her 3+ games & a significant fine. She know exactly who she can & can't do that to. She is very selective & very intentional, to do that to rookie Sheldon, yet she had NOTHING for rookie KiKi...had nothing for Mabrey
I will pray for the patience & strength of her teammates Aliyah Boston, DeWanna Bonner, and Sydney Colson because they don't deserve the circus of Caitlin, Sophie, & their hateful fanbase that encourages & applauds it. They don't support the Fever, we see by the ratings.
Caitlin Clark saying "I can do whatever the f**k I want" to Sheldon... So...I never thought Caitlin was her fan base... until that moment! Sure, she is a good player but she is insufferable. She loves to strike first, then run, expecting her teammates to have her back, OVERLY dramatic & selfish.
And I will add them to my reading list, thank you for sharing!
I have a one-sided beef with the state of Texas! Outside of Houston comets, I do NOT root for anything Texas! That all changed w/ the 2025 Dallas Wings! I hate that they are struggling and understand their frustration. Such an incredibly talented team! This game is hard to watch!
Because why was that necessary and then Nancy felt the need to add to the ignorance by recalling a situation...these two are exhausting, especially together. #WNBA
Late in watching this preseason #Mystics #Fever game. I am NOT a Sophie Cunningham fan, but da*n, why is she getting the welcome to the "Welcome to the league treatment "
I love DeWanna Bonner. I absolutely understand why, yet hate that she & Sydney Colson became a #Fever. I adore Aliyah Boston & wish her peace this season. #Fever made good moves to address their social ills. Yet adding Sophie just seems counterproductive!
Indiana Fever. Last season, I DESPISED their "new" fanbase & how some of their players ignored their obvious ignorant, racists & bigoted behavior. Having said that, I RESPECT Stephanie White & appreciate how the organization is trying to change the #Fever fanbase culture.
Awwww! These young ladies are absolutely adorable #WNBAdraft #OrangeCarpet
Not barred. But with 2/3 of that amazing freshman class transferring. The Seniors graduating- they way they should have utilized Iriafen & Marshall. The Juniors transferring & JuJu out...the chanes of USC getting top tier from the portal this year, are slim. Maybe the following year when Ju returns.
Congratulations to Sylvia Fowles on her selection to the 2025 Naismith Hall of Fame!π Selected as the Chicago Skyβs second overall pick in the 2008 WNBA Draft, Sylvia Fowles made her mark on the game and the team from day one. Welcome to the hall, Syl!
#NCAAWBB
I absolutely FORBID JuJu Watkins to return next season, she needs to redshirt. Especially since the mass exodus of USC players. If she does play next season, her coach is not putting Ju's best interests at heart! She better pull the overprotective mama bear card and bench her! #NCAAWBB
I hope JuJu Watkins and Ashlyn Watkins both can draw inspiration from both Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd. They experience the same injury and came back as champion and MVP! Stay focused, do NOT feel pressured to return prematurely and understand their process-their journey.
Regarding #GamecockWBB If noone transfers, Ashlyn Watkins returns healthy and w/ their incoming class, the only thing missing is a BIG! W/O a TRUE center, it's going to be difficult for them to match up with UConn & UCLA for the next few seasons.
Sarah Strong is the first player in NCAA history to record 20/15/5 in the Championship Game!
...And a healthy comeback for Fudd! I have a DEEP soft spot for comebacks after MAJOR injuries/ surgeries.
As I mentioned earlier this season #UConnWBB is a very different and dangerous team with a healthy Azzi Fudd! Don't like that it's at #GamecockWBB expense, but to see Paige Bueckers go out like this, to witness Fudd's confidence soar after injuries & Stong body this game... #Respect & #Love
Milaysia Fulwiley HAS to get going and do what she does!!! She's the only spark that can get #GamecockWBB going. #GAMECOCKWBB #UConnWBB #NCAAW
They don't have and answer for Fudd either!
I LOVE Azzi Fudd, but she is tearing #GamecockWBB up!
Raven Johnson is playing one hell of a game! #GAMECOCKWBB #UConnWBB #NCAAW
Azzi Fudd has MiLaysia Fulwiley's number today! #GAMECOCKWBB #UConnWBB #NCAAW
Azzi Fudd has reached 1000 points!
Terrible call on Joyce Edwards
I've NEVER been as conflicted as I am... And I LOVE it! #GAMECOCKWBB #UConnWBB #NCAAW
I'm out of breath just watching!!!
I see refs are going to be a factor today. Some interesting calls.
Ohhhhweee! They are PLAYING today!!! This is incredible! #GAMECOCKWBB #UConnWBB #NCAAW
Honestly, #UCLA went further in the tournament than I expected them to, so kudos to them for that. But they are getting THRASHED by #UConn #NCAAW #FinalFour
I mean if the current presidential administration refuses to play by the rules and refuses to obey law...why should states!?!
I do hope that JuJu & Ashlyn Watkins reaches out to/looks for inspiration from Paige Bueckers, Azzi Fudd, Rori Harmon, Dijonai Carrington...Just to name a few who has experienced exactly what she is experiencing. Ju is going to come back a different kind of monster. I look forward to witnessing it!
My Bracket has #UConn V #GamecockWBB in the championship! I've been a UConn fan since Nykesha Sales. My favorite all-times are Taurasi, Sales, Bueckers & Fudd. I've been a #GamecockWBB fan since Dawn Staley, as one of my all time fav players/people/coaches...wherever she goes, I go!
*Freshmen
Paige Bueckers, your 2025 Wade trophy winner! uconnhuskies.com/news/2025/4/...
Sarah Stong...baby girl is NOT a freshman. These Freshman and sophomores are playing like grown women. #NCAAW #FinalFour
Azzi Fudd...I am so proud and happy for baby girl! She is off to a great start! W/O her on point, UConn will not win #UConn #NCAAW
Nah we cooking! I made and ate 4 jerk tacos, a side salad, and a Mango Margarita!!!
Alright UConn...I NEED y'all to do this!!! For Paige's and my sake...we need a UConn V South Carolina championship! #NCAAW #FinalFour
Taurasi is feeling GOODT!!! #NCAAW
#GamecockWBB FINALLY not stressing me out! THE BEST they've looked all tournament!!! This #Cuttwater Mango Margarita got me tipsy! #Lightweight
CHOLE...My love...please stop fouling. We NEED you! #GamecockWBB #NCAAW
Something is in Diana's cup...We will see its impact next game #UConn
This baby ain't no freshman!!! JOYCE EDWARDS! #GAMECOCKWBB #NCAAW
That was not a foul
The way Bree Hall fell π€£ππ€£! NOT Dawn laughing her a$$ off...NOT MiLaysia pointing at Bree and laughing her a$$ off! #GAMECOCKWBB #NCAAW
Jerk (ground turkey) tacos. The chicken would take too long too cook, I was HUNGRY!
OH for sure...I'm DOWN!!!
Ate 4 tacos, Chillin' on this sofa watching the Bird and Taurasi version of this South Carolina V Texas game. Half-time report I gotta switch back to my trio of ladies. My drink is on standby...South Carolina drove me to drink this season π€ #NCAAW #FinalFour
MiLaysia Fulwiley is a masterpiece under construction, the most interesting work in progress in basketball. π trib.al/teuqddK
Perhaps Miles is avoiding the CBA hoopla and focusing on developing and fine tuning her skills by working with another coach that she can learn more from than what Notre Dame has to offer to her.
Paige Bueckers...I LOVE this damn girl! #UConn #Elite8 #NCAAW
Sarah effin Strong...My gawd this kid is AMAZING!!! #UConn #NCAAW
Riiiiiiiiight! That's what's so shocking! I understand her staying another year, but leaving Ivey π€―
Oh WTH.... Notre Dame's Olivia Miles! Did NOT see this coming, like AT ALL!
7th year SENIOR is WILD! They didn't have to do her like THAT! π€π€π€ #TCU
Ohhhhhhh sh*t Texas 00!!! Play of the game! #BigGurlsπ #NCAAW
At Black colleges, a stubborn gender enrollment gap keeps growing Only 19 percent of students at Howard University are Black men, whose enrollment levels at four-year colleges have plummeted across the board
Watching the Texas Vs. TCU game (My bracket has TCU...My feelings...Texas π³), while reading Parable of The Sower (the graphic novel version)! #NCAAW #WBB #BookClub
I truly believe South Carolina #GamecockWBB players do not get the respect they deserve, especially Chloe Kitts, her growth is impressive! Next season they will be DANGEROUS and undefeated!
Beautiful block from Flau'jae Johnson on Betts!!! #NcaaW
My bracket is still doing pretty well! Sitting at 92.8% accuracy! I have #UConn V #SouthCarolina in the championship #WBB #NCAAWBB
NOW I can, while I have this soothing glass of wine...because that game was stressful a$$ trashπ€
They've been stressing me out all season, but especially throughout this tournament!!!
The amount of stress and emotional turmoil that South Carolina Gamecocks has me through all season, especially throughout the tournament ... π«π«π«
I've been saying all season, USC has a very talented TEAM that for whatever reason, Coach Gottlieb refuses to utilize. It's unfortunate it took JuJu's tragic injury for her to emphasize the importance of theTEAM! JuJu baby, rest up and healπ
Paige Bueckers has set a new UConn WBB record for points in an NCAA Tournament game in today's win over Oklahoma π₯ β½ 40 PTS β½ 16/27 FG β½ 6/8 3-PT FG
Babygirl deserves this and so much more!
