Monica and Sara

The 2025 WNBA season has officially wrapped, and Monica and Sara are here to break it all down: finals, coaching chaos, and what’s next for women’s basketball.

They recap the Las Vegas Aces’ dominant championship run, the Phoenix Mercury’s collapse, and how injuries and confidence shifts changed the playoff landscape. From Alyssa Thomas’s tough series to A’ja Wilson’s continued dynasty-level play, they unpack what made this postseason exciting, frustrating, and a little bit historic.

They also get into:

💬 The growing tension between players and WNBA leadership heading into the 2026 CBA negotiations

🏀 Napheesa Collier’s public statement calling out Commissioner Cathy Engelbert—and the fallout that followed

💸 Why the new Unrivaled league could be a game-changer for player pay and visibility

👟 Expansion updates: Sandy Brondello to the Toronto Tempo, and Portland Fire’s questionable coaching hire

🤔 A conversation on men coaching in women’s sports, Title IX history, and why “progress” isn’t always what it seems

It’s an honest, passionate, and slightly chaotic wrap-up—the kind of conversation that reminds you why we love this league and the people fighting to make it better.
