WNBA Playoff Picture Still Unclear + Most Improved Player Debate

The Women’s Hoops Show

With just weeks left in the regular season, the WNBA playoff picture is anything but settled. On this episode of The Women’s Hoop Show, we break down the Aces’ resurgence, the Dream’s late-game struggles, the Storm’s shocking comeback over the Lynx, and the Liberty’s stumble at the wrong time. We also spotlight spoiler teams shaking up the standings and whether the Indiana Fever can hang onto the 8-spot.

Then it’s awards talk: we debate the frontrunners for Most Improved Player, from Veronica Burton’s breakout with the Valkyries to Alicia Gray’s leap into MVP territory. In Hoop Roots, Sheryl Swoopes reflects on recording the WNBA’s first-ever triple-double, while we make the case for Alyssa Thomas’s MVP candidacy. Finally, we wrap with Sending Flowers presented by Cash App, honoring the players and coaches making the biggest impact right now.
