it was also the funniest surprise to see our site turn up in a novel?? the βone from Defectorβ sounds extremely beautiful and smart, as well as kindβ¦

writing this feature about the legendary cardte hicks for @defector.com made me feel more connected to the heart & soul of women's basketball!
as a player & person, cardte was singular - but her experience of systemic racism in wbb was not. i hope this piece helps crack open more convo about it <3
For the first time in league history, the WNBA generated enough revenue in 2025 to trigger revenue sharing with players. Players will receive $8 million.
The union will also pay out $9.25 million from revenue generated from its group licensing program.
