    Episode 1723

    Show notes

    The Golden State Valkyries are officially WNBA champions! In just their second season as a franchise, the Valkyries defeated the Atlanta Dream 68-63 in Game 7 of the 2026 WNBA Finals on November 1 at Chase Center.

    This is a historic accomplishment for an expansion franchise. Golden State became the first expansion team in WNBA history to win a championship within its first two seasons.

    Even more impressive, they did it by building a team around defense, chemistry, depth and players who embraced the opportunity to establish something new.

  12. The Valkyries’ DEFENSE Steals Game 1! Can the Dream Bounce Back in the WNBA Finals?

    Episode 1713

    Show notes

    The Golden State Valkyries are one win closer to a historic WNBA championship! 🏆 Golden State took Game 1 of the WNBA Finals with a gritty 68–64 victory over the Atlanta Dream, leaning on its defensive identity and a clutch performance from Gabby Williams.

    🏀 IN THIS EPISODE:

    🔥 Valkyries Take Game 1: Gabby Williams erupts for 26 points as Golden State overcomes an early deficit and closes the game on a decisive 7–0 run.

    🛡️ Defense Wins Championships: The Valkyries hold Atlanta to just eight points in the fourth quarter, with Kiah Stokes recording four blocks and Golden State's defense coming through in the biggest moments.

    📉 What Went Wrong for Atlanta? Angel Reese finishes with 14 points and 12 rebounds, while Allisha Gray leads the Dream with 19 points. But Atlanta's fourth-quarter scoring collapse and missed late three-pointers prove costly.

    👀 Game 2 Preview: Can the Dream even the series, or will the Valkyries take a commanding 2–0 lead? We break down the adjustments both teams need to make, the key matchups to watch and what's at stake as the Finals continue at Chase Center.

    📈 The WNBA's Continued Growth: Commissioner Cathy Engelbert discusses the league's record-breaking season, including more than 90 million unique U.S. viewers, record attendance and growing fan engagement as the WNBA looks toward its next chapter.

    Who has the advantage moving forward: the Valkyries or the Dream? Let us know your Game 2 prediction in the comments!

    Utah Jazz fans get a first-hand look at Jaren Jackson Jr.’s dynamic presence—dominating on offense, anchoring the defense, but raising red flags with rebounding woes and foul trouble. With training camp insights, expectations surrounding Jackson’s fit in Will Hardy’s system gain clarity: Can he sustain his offensive prowess while the team compensates for his deficiencies on the glass?

    David Locke highlights Ace Bailey’s impressive preseason surge, evaluates tough NBA learning curves for rookies like Darryn Peterson, and questions whether Isaiah Collier, Brice Sensabaugh, or Kyle Filipowski are ready to fuel winning basketball. As the Utah Jazz gear up for opening night against the Memphis Grizzlies, uncertainty lingers around offensive chemistry and youthful depth—can Hardy’s evolving rotation bring it all together, or will clunky starts define the early season? Tune in for sharp analysis and a look ahead to Jazz basketball’s next chapter.

    Show notes

    The future of women's basketball is looking BRIGHT! 🏀🔥 On today's episode, we're breaking down the WNBA All-Rookie Team and why this group of young talent has the potential to become the future faces of the league. From Pauline Astier and Azzi Fudd to Flau’jae Johnson, Olivia Miles, KiKi Rice, and Sydney Taylor, we're looking at the next generation of stars.

    Then, we're diving into the biggest women's college basketball transfers of the offseason and how they'll impact their new programs.

  15. The WNBA Finals Just Got BIGGER! Why Moving Games to State Farm Arena Was the Right Call

    Episode 1710

    Show notes

    The WNBA Finals are taking center stage in Atlanta, and moving Games 3 and 4 to State Farm Arena was the right move for the league! 🏀 With a larger venue, more fans can experience the excitement as the Atlanta Dream face the Golden State Valkyries in a historic championship matchup. We're breaking down why this decision is a win for the WNBA, the Dream, and the growth of women's basketball.

    Plus, we're identifying the unsung heroes who could decide the WNBA Finals, from Kiah Stokes, Veronica Burton, and Tiffany Hayes for Golden State to Jordin Canada, DeWanna Bonner, and Isobel Borlase for Atlanta. These players might not always get the spotlight, but their contributions could make all the difference in a championship series.

    And finally, we're asking a big question: Does A'ja Wilson's semifinal exit overshadow her historic fifth MVP award? After another remarkable individual season, we discuss Wilson's legacy, the Aces' championship disappointment, and what this result means for Las Vegas moving forward.

  19. Atlanta DREAM WIN Game 2 in OT Amid CONTROVERSY | Liberty on Brink of Elimination

    Episode 1706

    Show notes

    The Atlanta Dream are ONE win away from the WNBA Finals after a wild 101–98 overtime victory over the New York Liberty — but the ending came with plenty of controversy.

    Breanna Stewart dropped 35 points, but Atlanta rallied behind Angel Reese, Jordin Canada and a huge late-game play from Naz Hillmon to take a commanding 2–0 series lead. After the game, Stewart questioned whether the Liberty had a reset timeout remaining, while officials provided their explanation of the situation.

    Meanwhile, the Golden State Valkyries are also up 2–0 after stunning the defending champion Las Vegas Aces 83–81. Veronica Burton hit the clutch three, A'ja Wilson led a furious Vegas comeback, and Golden State once again showed off the depth that has carried them this far.

    Plus, we look ahead to the new faces joining Unrivaled, including Kiki Rice, Aneesah Morrow and Sydney Taylor, while several familiar stars depart.

  20. WNBA Semifinals Shaken by Injuries + What’s Next for Dallas? | Locked On Women’s Basketball

    Episode 1705

    Show notes

    The WNBA semifinals are already feeling the impact of injuries. How will Atlanta and Las Vegas adjust, and which players need to step up with the stakes at their highest?

    On today’s Locked On Women’s Basketball, we break down the biggest injury storylines heading into the semifinals, including how Atlanta can replace the production of Rhyne Howard and whether its depth can hold up against New York.

    Then, we look ahead to what’s next for the Dallas Wings after a dramatic turnaround season. Paige Bueckers established herself as one of the league’s best, Jessica Shepard emerged as a major free-agent success story, and Azzi Fudd showed plenty of promise before her season-ending knee procedure. What should Dallas prioritize moving forward?
