    The Washington Mystics hold the keys to Free Agency: Are Cloud and Delle Donne gone? | WNBA podcast
    Jan 19 2024

    Host Jackie Powell is joined by The Next’s Mystics beat reporter to unpack an opinion Jackie has. Why do the Washington Mystics hold the keys to WNBA Free Agency this winter? What is the latest on Elena Delle Donne and where could the pair see her ending up especially after the Mystics cored her on January 13? Also, does Natasha Cloud leave the team who drafted her? Jenn doesn’t think so, but Cloud will be on top of many teams’ free agency wish lists. And finally, if both players don’t return to Washington, how do the Mystics move forward and into a new era without their two franchise stalwarts? Is it time for retooling or rebuilding?

  • UConn OVERWHELMS Iowa, Louisville’s Depth Shines & Audi Crooks’ 41-Point Masterclass

    UConn OVERWHELMS Iowa, Louisville’s Depth Shines & Audi Crooks’ 41-Point Masterclass
    Dec 22 2025

    UConn sent a clear message to the rest of women’s college basketball with a 90–64 statement win over Iowa, locking in defensively and blowing the game open behind huge performances from Sarah Strong and Azzi Fudd. The Huskies’ full-court pressure, transition scoring, and second-half shot-making proved too much for the Hawkeyes, despite Iowa winning the rebounding battle.

    In Segment 2, Louisville pulled away from Tennessee 89–65, showcasing elite depth with six players scoring in double figures. The Cardinals dominated the glass, forced turnovers, and turned defense into easy offense to seize control in the second half. Tajianna Roberts, Imari Berry, and Reyna Scott led a balanced attack that overwhelmed the Lady Vols.

    To close the show, we ask the big question:
    Is Audi Crooks the most dominant player in the NCAA right now?
    After a 41-point performance against Kansas, Crooks continues to put up historic numbers with jaw-dropping efficiency, averaging more points than minutes played and converting over 72% from the field. We break down what makes her so difficult to stop and where she fits in the national player-of-the-year conversation.
