Summary
Zena and Layshia break down the 2026 WNBA Draft, drilling into the story behind Golden State trading Flau’jae Johnson to the Seattle Storm, and detailing why Seattle is actually a better fit for Flau’jae, plus the reality behind trades as business. Then, they turn their attention to the wild past week of free agency signings and movement – highlighting how these new rosters might come together on the court, with a special focus on the New York Liberty, the Dallas Wings, the Minnesota Lynx, the Chicago Sky, and the Seattle Storm. They wrap up by talking about the story behind the story of Raven Johnson and the Indiana Fever – the made-up beef with Caitlin Clark from back in the NCAA day, the racism lurking beneath the surface, and the real story of how excited Raven is to be joining the squad.
