  • From Vegas vs. NY to Chicago vs. Indiana: What makes healthy rivalries in the WNBA? | WNBA Podcast

    From Vegas vs. NY to Chicago vs. Indiana: What makes healthy rivalries in the WNBA? | WNBA Podcast
    2025/05/23

    Host Jackie Powell is joined by Cassandra Negley of Yahoo Sports to dive into the current discourse about WNBA rivalries. The pair discusses what makes healthy rivalries and how hate speech against any player or team shouldn’t be a part of rivalries shaping the league. They consider if the Fever vs. Sky is a legitimate WNBA rivalry? And then they go down memory lane and reminisce as to how the Liberty vs. Aces evolved into an actual rivalry after initial pushback from players and coaches. Breanna Stewart provides her thoughts on the matter too. And lastly, Jackie and Cassandra explain media members and the league can really do to make sure that these rivalries grow, but don't grow at the expense of personal safety.
