“KD with a coochie” is a nightmare for the dream, ties Liz Cambage’s WNBA record of 53 points.

The reigning WNBA MVP and DPOY is at it again. Last night vs the Atlanta Dream, A’ja Wilson went nuclear and dropped 53 points with 7 rebounds. In the process, she made HERstory tying Elizabeth Cambage for the most points ever scored in a WNBA game. A’ja was surgical, shooting an efficient 16-for-23 from the field. These are the kind of performances that earned her the title of “KD with a coochie”. This is just another one of the many records she’ll break before all is said and done.

LV Aces superteam win their (WNBA record) 30th game of the season.

We may have just witnessed the most dominant regular season ever seen in pro basketball. The reigning WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces look ready to run it back, becoming the first team in league HERstory to eclipse 30 wins. MVP A’ja Wilson is on pace to win the award again this season as well, leading the way with 22 points and 9.5 boards per game. Throw in fellow All-Stars Kelsey Plum and Chelsea Gray, and you’ll see why they’ve steamrolled the competition all season long. But, the work doesn’t stop here. There is another superteam up north called the NY Liberty, and they are not afraid. Barring any catastrophic upsets, we should be seeing these two teams face off for all the marbles soon.

Connecticut Sun F Alyssa Thomas breaks WNBA record for double-doubles in a season.

Today in HERstory, we celebrate another WNBA record being broken. Current assists (8.1 per game) and rebounds (9.9 per game) leader Alyssa Thomas did everything she could to try and knock off the NY Liberty Thursday night. The Connecticut Sun fell short by a score of 95-90, but not for a lack of effort on Thomas who put up 22 points (50% from the field) with 12 assists and 7 rebounds. This was her 24th double-double, which sets a new record for the most in a WNBA season. Thomas has had a great season that could very well give A’ja Wilson some competition in the MVP race.

Me either. They've been struggling ever since.

I mean, the dude is regarded as one of the best in the league, had to been to a Finals, and the year they got rid of him was following a conference finals appearance. And who did they replace him with? Anne Donovan!?! Really.

And then you’ve got Curt Miller:

I agree. Bone needs to be in the post. Not on the perimeter ready to shoot 3's

You’re absolutely right, but I’m afraid he has asked her to do that. I found this article from December, where he says he love’s three-point shooting and he wants the team to be uptempo.

Which is great...but their roster has a million posts and only 4 guards, two of whom are Kelly Faris and Rachel Banham (not really known for their speed...); his point guard is Jasmine Thomas who has never been known for 3-point shooting, and then Alex Bentley who is a career 32% 3-point shooter.

When you think you can turn Kelsey Bone into perimeter shooter...you’re in trouble.
