Becky Hammon became the first woman to direct a team in NBA history, taking over the Spurs following coach Gregg Popovich’s ejection in the first half.
Guys 🥺🥺 my brother just got traded to the Reds . Seeing my dad and my brother in the same Big League dugout is the very first sports dream I ever dreamt, and today it came true. My heart is so warm.
I don’t know that I’ve ever seen an NBA player or pro athlete who has recovered stronger from a torn Achilles’ tendon than

Hey WNBA partner

It be white people ...disrespecting black athletes . Don’t just say “a fan” let’s really talk about what’s goin on in pro sports right now . This shit is bigger than having a “passionate fan base” . It’s disrespectful af .
My only hope with sharing my story (well…this part) is to inspire anyone who feels that life has dealt them a hand they see no way out of. You will get through it…whatever it is. Lean on those you love. Never lose faith in God.

@jj_redick
for holding this down. And this is why athlete (current & former) representation in the media is so important .
To the Sky organization, thank you for the past 4 years. And to all my teammates over the years, S/O to yal just in general, u know who u are. Thanks for the memories❤️ I’ll see yal in the valley 🏜
While the world is hot and on fire due to womens basketball…. Can we keep the momentum going and try and figure out what is HAPPENING with BG right now ?! 199 days!?!
@POTUS
@WhiteHouse

Aye mannnnn S/O to US!!!! The LADIES!!!!!
@WNBA
I couldn’t be more proud to be a part of THIS group, THIS year. We made history, we are changing the world. And that’s on period. U cannot minimize the impact that we have had on THIS election.
....YAL FOLKS IS NOSEY 😂😂 now ERRBODY tunes in to what we have going on in the bubble. All y’all that’s paying attention to these accommodation issues better tune in to these damn games ! That’s on period. Everybody talking bout a laundry room...K.T.S.E. around these games!

I wanted to jump gun. You wanted to wait. I wanted to defend you. You didn’t want it to define you.
You were right ❤️
Season opens tonight around the W, something we should all celebrate. But….Just doesn’t feel quite right without BG. We are missing our sister who should be out there competing with us TONIGHT.
#FreeBG
My previous tweets were pure sarcasm. I have nothing negative to TRULY say about this clip. I just hope folks use this as a reference when they come for us (women). 🙂 I’m prepared to get attacked regardless. I welcome the hypocrisy.
Okay now class, today is a day we all need to be celebrating and uplifting
@ReneeMontgomery
. Get that hate up out ya blood, this is a really big deal 😊😊😊
I need a legit explanation as to why we’re playing games at 12pm….to think about it, I never really asked. Can someone explain? At this point it’s not making much sense at all to be headed to the arena at 9:15 am ….just now thought about it 🤔 cuz….
This week alone we have WITNESSED the torch being passed across numerous sports . Being a soorts fan is just so exciting right now. Thank you to all who came before 🙏🏾💐
To whom it may concern …. I would’ve stayed and used my 5th year under the current climate of women’s college basketball 😊 . Also , does anyone know if I can still use that 5th year?!? 😂😂😂 kidding….wait…idk😅
I’m so proud of you man. Your resiliency, your heart, your mental toughness…the list could go on. Everything you went through and you came out a CHAMP!!! I’m so happy the universe brought us back together. My best friend for life🤞🏾
@diamonddoesit1
WOW. These refs blew it. Troy should be in a better position to win this game right now. In my opinion they should’ve won the game. Those 3 calls hurt. BAD.
I’ve seen Allie make a lot of clutch buckets but for some reason that shot made me the most excited. And the second shot after she broke the record 😩 *chefs kiss*. That record will stand for a WHILE, and u guys did it together. 🖤🙏🏾
