The 2025 WNBA All-Star reserves have been announced! We break down the surprises and the snubs. Plus, NaLyssa Smith was traded to Vegas, the league announced three new expansion teams, and the players rejected the first CBA negotiation offer. We also discuss Nikki Blue’s lawsuit against the Phoenix Mercury and Hannah Hidalgo’s huge AmeriCup performance.

We kick things off with the DeWanna Bonner of it all. She’s out of Indiana and reportedly looking to play in Phoenix — but we had to ask: what really went down with the Fever?

Then we dive into your 2025 WNBA All-Star captains, Caitlin Clark and Napheesa Collier. We also unpack the drama around Portland’s expansion team — from rocky leadership changes to the fact that the team still doesn’t have a name. And yes, we’re absolutely talking about those Dawn Staley to the Knicks rumors, too.

We’re back! Natalie was off filming a show in Montreal, so we hit pause — but now we’re back and diving headfirst into the W.

This week, we’re talking about the nonexistent WNBA marketing in Canada (even with the Toronto Tempo coming next season), the Fever vs. Sun brawl that left us with more questions than answers, and the Chicago Sky’s ongoing coaching chaos. Plus, there are early rumblings about CBA negotiations.

The good, the bad, and the messy — it’s all here. Welcome back to Club Hoops!
