Yes, she can be our next franchise player. I also need to find out about this Hannah Hidalgo from Notre Dame. She's only 5'6", but she's putting up video game numbers in the steals department. She's had about 5 or 6 games with more than 10 steals. As sorry as we are, the NBA/WNBA owes us Juju Watkins from having to give up players to the expansion teams this year.
Only need to lose 40 more. Top 3 picks all solid, but if no ju ju the top 2 picks are still legit immediate impact. wnba should assign players, as the draft is not really helping the league gain traction, but as it is, this is the year to bottom out and secure the pick.
They almost won last night, but the Tank God's came thru. 0-5! Hailey Van Lith is def looking like a nice pickup.
Well that blows. She actually played decently the few times I tuned in. The top pick in the draft Gianna Kneepkins hasn't done squat yet.
We need to be visionary. Anyone contributing to winning has to go. This needs to look and feel like a new franchise. So when leadership moves in it’s always best, for long run, and not for the short, to clean the chalkboard and start fresh.
That's a shame, but I don't know if there's anybody else that was more expendable on the team since I don't know the team (lol). She was a hell of a high school player, but is tiny in comparison to WNBA players, which is part of the problem from what I've read. In any case, I've also read they're just making room to bring back Leila Lacan which probably isn't great news for our tanking hopes.
I'm glad she's sticking around but I still don't get why she was waived in the first place when she's better than most of the players on the team
She apparently had "other opportunities available to her". I wonder if that was in the WNBA? Strange. Maybe she's helping with landscaping for the Sun... on the side. I also just thought maybe she was too conducive to winning this season. In any case - I'm all for it.
Cross-posting this here because I hadn't heard about this, but.... Houston WNBA Team Expects to Keep Comets Name Amid Trademark Dispute On March 30, Rockets ownership announced it had reached an agreement to purchase the Sun from the Mohegan Tribe. The deal is worth $300 million, the largest sale in league history. The organization has referred to their future WNBA team as the Comets since the announcement, even though the WNBA lost the trademark for the franchise name. The WNBA held the trademark for the Houston Comets from 1997 until 2021. The league applied for the trademark again in February 2025, but not before a Delaware-based company called TSTM Holdings had already submitted a trademark application in May 2024. The WNBA filed a notice of opposition in May 2025. USA Today was first to report about the trademark dispute. It’s unclear what type of company TSTM Holdings is, and why it applied for the Houston Comets trademark. However, the Houston Chronicle reported last month that rapper Travis Scott is affiliated with the company.
