Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese and the big problem at the top: WNBA goes beyond the court and takes action

For professional athletes, the weight they carry stretches far beyond the stat sheet. The WNBA's stars are not only dealing with grueling schedules and relentless public scrutiny, but also deeply personal battles such as menstrual health, postpartum body changes, fertility struggles and the emotional toll of balancing life in the spotlight with who they are off the court. Back in 2019, the NBA had already made strides with mental health policies, while the WNBA was just beginning to acknowledge the urgency. That changed when Las Vegas Aces center Liz Cambage broke the silence. Her powerful open letter in The Players' Tribune pulled no punches: "We're suffering, and no one's really helping." Just four days into her new role, Commissioner Cathy Engelbert added mental health to her list of league priorities. By January 2020, a groundbreaking new collective bargaining agreement (CBA) […]

Chicago Sky’s struggles: Angel Reese’s WNBA performance raises red flags

Expectations were sky-high for Angel Reese, the seventh overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft.

Reese, on the other hand, had a much quieter showing.

Caitlin Clark took the WNBA from punchline to powerhouse, says Pacers’ assistant Jenny Boucek

The "Caitlin Clark Effect" has been widely discussed-and rightly so. From sold-out arenas to record-breaking viewership, much of the WNBA's surge in popularity can be credited to Clark's arrival. Few are better positioned to reflect on this seismic shift than Jenny Boucek, who has witnessed the transformation from the inside.In an interview with Nacho García of Marca TV, Boucek said the WNBA's current momentum has been a long time coming. "To see it come to fruition is emotional for a lot of us, because even my generation felt a lot of discrimination," said the Indiana Pacers assistant coach.Boucek, who once played for the now-defunct Cleveland Rockers, recalled how the WNBA used to be "the brunt of a lot of jokes on comedy shows and talk shows and radio."
