Well said, Lucas and Colin. Agreed. 🗽 🏀 ⛹🏽‍♀️ #WNBASky #WNBA #NewYorkLiberty #LibertySky #SabrinaIonescu

I also commented on this! But only vaguely guessing. Yeah, Scotto really does seem to be making a major upward move. Good for him! 🏀 #NBA

😆 From boy band (Hans*n) to fan boy… Brooklyn settles for a Chinese big who’s not even in show business.

I guess one man’s Yang really is another man’s Zeng…. 🤷🏽

Oh! I thought you were joking about Scotto. Making big moves to move up the NBA news scoops ranks.

Hahaha. Thats how Shams put up his historic numbers, so…. 🤷‍♀️ 🏀 📰

Scotto is def cooking this offseason. Trying to jump a level, and certainly off to a good start.

Fanbo Zeng, can he live up to the hype I’ve read?

Update: The New Orleans Pelicans signed Jaden Springer to an Exhibit-9 deal, sources told @hoopshypeofficial.bsky.social. Springer will compete for a roster spot in training camp with the Pelicans. Springer has played for the Philadelphia 76ers, Boston Celtics, and Utah Jazz in his four-year career.

FROM SHAMS:

Pelicans forward/center Derik Queen underwent surgery to repair a torn scapholunate ligament in his left wrist and will be re-evaluated in 12 weeks.

Tweet FROM SHAMS: Chicago Bulls head coach Billy Donovan has signed a multiyear contract extension with the franchise, sources tell ESPN. Donovan is viewed as a leader within the Bulls organization, and will enter his sixth season in Chicago in 2025-26 with 800 NBA games coached over his career.

FROM SHAMS:

Free agent guard/forward Ricky Council IV will sign a one-year contract with the Brooklyn Nets, his agent Adie von Gontard tells ESPN. The former 76ers wing appeared in a team-high 73 games last season, averaging 7.3 points and 2.9 rebounds.

Here’s hoping….

Cards should have probably shipped out at least three more players in other deals. Their season is sadly DOA. ⚾️ 🔴⚪️ #SaintLouisCardinals #CardinalsNation

Makes sense for both teams. Though Helsley has been a mixed bag this year in STL, he’s been brilliant in the past. Hope it works out for both sides. 🤞🏽 ⚾️ #SaintLouisCardinals #NewYorkMets

💯 He has the bulk, and hopefully the savvy, to do it well. Really want to see Dëmin running some pick-and-rolls with both Clax and Day.

I definitely think Day Day could have a huge season, and I hope he gets the chance to. 🏀 #NetsWorld

Probably. She’s having an MVP-level season, so I’m sure she’s won more than one performance award already this year. #WNBA

This season? I don’t know. I’m just quoting the press release.

Images of Sabrina Ionescu dribbling and shooting in games this season—- “EASTERN CONFERENCE Player of the Week 24.0 PPG 7.7 APG 6.0 RPG 1.7 SPG 1.0 BPG 48.3% FG 37.5% 3PT SABRINA IONESCU”

“Sabrina Ionescu Earns Second Consecutive WNBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week Award…. Ionescu becomes first player leaguewide to earn consecutive honors this season.”

I’m also a fan of the Sky, and I seem to remember that when Emma left she was exhausted from juggling WNBA & international commitments & decided to take the summer off (given the W’s frustratingly strict rules about international play). 🏀 ⛹🏽‍♀️ #WNBA #WNBASky #LibertySky #EmmaMeesseman #ChicagoSky

Emma Meesseman: WNBA prioritization rule not fair to international players - Just Women's Sports As the WNBA offseason approaches, so too do the implications of the new prioritization clause in the league‘s CBA.

Part of the reason Meesseman left the W after playing a season for Chicago…. 🗽 🏀 ⛹🏽‍♀️ #WNBA #WNBASky #LibertySky #2025WNBAFreeAgency #EmmaMeesseman #NewYorkLiberty #ChicagoSky
