Another game today where Karlie Samuleson is getting way more minutes for the Sparks than Mabrey. Odd that they cut her earlier.
If she was on the Sparks she wasnt playing for GB in the Euro Cup. She only committed to GB after being cut. GB was glad she came to play. Havent seen Karlie sign with a foreign team, as of yet, for the fall.Perhaps because they knew she'd be leaving the team to play in the Eurocup. When Williams returns they'll again have to make a choice between Samuelson and Mabrey.

Stef's a pretty physical player and she's 40 lbs. heavier than Achonwa. When she backs down Achonwa, there's going to be some dislodging going on. Ace saw what was going to happen so she set her feet and braced for impact. I think she outsmarted Stef on this one.
That being said, I love them both and Stef's soundbite is hilarious. Ace got the call and got under Stef's skin. Stef got the comeback win. Until next time...
Aces running away w/ the game in Q4. Up 18. Hamby has had a really nice game starting in place of the injured Wilson. The much maligned Plum has also had a nice game. Does a lot of little things, she's been a pesky defender and she's scoring efficiently.
How in the world did the Phoenix-Indiana game start 30 minutes later, but finish before LV-Seattle?!
Looks like besides playing for the Sparks and GB, Karlie is going into the acting field.Interesting. I wonder if she's happy the way events unfolded. She did well playing for GB, is now back with the Sparks and has a chance to play in the Olympics next year.

Two experimental rules will be in place for the game:

- Live play substitutions can only be made by the offensive team.
- A player cannot be substituted out while she is holding the ball.

DD won the skills competition over JJ with a clutch 3pt shot when she was trailing in time (because she could not pass accurately)
Stricklan takes the 3 pt competition over McBride 23-22.
Quigley only had 19 and Kia with 14.
Kayla continues to be the McBride's Maid but never the McBride.
Not only in 3 pt competitions but back in her ND days.
except for EuroLeague 2019 with UMMC Ekaterinburg
