Hi there!

On today’s episode of The GIST of It, co-host Steph Rotz and guest host Robyn Pearson dive into a plethora of WNBA news before the second half of the season tips off. First up, the gals discuss LA Sparks forward Dearica Hamby’s recent federal lawsuit against her former team, the Las Vegas Aces, and the WNBA over alleged discrimination in relation to her pregnancy. 

Then in part two, Steph and Robyn preview the second half of the season as the league returns from the Olympic break. After a triumphant Team USA gold in Paris, top players like A’ja Wilson (Las Vegas Aces), Sabrina Ionescu (NY Liberty), Alyssa Thomas (Connecticut Sun), and Napheesa Collier (Minnesota Lynx) are back stateside, baby.
