This news about Satou is devastating. Wheelchairs should be used for every injury. No exceptions.

Every injured player should immediately be put in a wheelchair and wheeled off the court. No exceptions. The player does not get to choose. I will stand on that always. The trainers can figure out if the player can "walk on her own power" in the back.

The news about Satou is extremely upsetting. I remember Satou's original injury with the Mercury, they had her laying on the court forever, then tried to walk her to the back, and she immediately collapsed. She should have been in a wheelchair and possibly a neck brace before leaving the court.

If the trainers aren't skilled or cautious enough to make a proper assessment for the players' health, then there needs to be an EMT present at every shootaround and every game, who immediately evaluates every player when they go down.

Satou is not an isolated incident, it happens all time the in all sports. Wheelchairs must be the norm, not the exception. I remember runner Allyson Felix got injured and her own brother had to pick her up and carry her off the track to the locker room. No wheelchair was there. Another runner collapsed after the race and it was like 5 minutes before someone appeared with a wheelchair. The runner was just there in agony with thousands of people staring. It is ridiculous.

Okot should start. It will not be perfect, but it is necessary. There is juuuust enough time remaining in the season to get Okot settled.

Really concerned about Bri. I hope she is ok. If she is able to come back, she is the perfect plug-in vet that can get on the court and immediately impact the game, without playing heavy minutes. The players with less experience are not able to do that. I think Okot should start at the 5 for the rest of the season. Karl and the assistant coaches need to prepare her starting today. Okot can do it. The Dream needs it. It will not be perfect and Okot will make mistakes. But I think there is just enough time left in the season to get Okot settled before the Playoffs start.

There are 7 games before the FIBA break. Then the coaches can continue to work with Okot during the 3-week break. 4 games after the break. So that's 11 games plus coaching in between. I think Okot can get settled as the starting 5 in time for the playoffs.

Remembering Unrivaled Season 1 makes me feel instant joy. I had so much fun with all of you and getting to know the players. Best sports experience EVER!

For me personally, I don't think anything will ever top what we experienced together during Season 1. Lightening in a bottle! I will always be thankful.

She's always taken mid-range shots

Too many people have "basketball takes" based on their feelings and not facts. Here are a few mid-range shots from college.

Coach, you ate that 🤣 The moment the team found out about A & R's Team USA selections!

Angel always gets shy when accolades are announced. Reminds me of when she won DPOY and All-Unrivaled. She got really shy and could barely give a speech. Very endearing!

Williams hit Angel in the face. Williams knocked Angel to the ground. Two refs watched, then called the foul on Angel. Williams shot 2 free throws. Made both.
