A CRAZY week in women’s hoops!Dallas Wings got the No. 1 pick in the 2026 draft— so yes, the Azzi Fudd conversation is happening. The Liberty hire Chris DeMarco, Project B snatched more stars, and Duke… continues to Duke.
USC vs Notre Dame comes down to a Hannah Hidalgo game-winner, UConn vs Michigan gives us a fireworks show from Azzi Fudd and Syla Swords, and Iowa sends Baylor straight out of the rankings.And we ask, did Steph Curry leave Under Armour because the company couldn't sign Caitlin Clark?!?!

Duke went out sad, losing to a West Virginia team that only had five available players. And yes, we’re looking directly at Coach Kara Lawson.
Meanwhile, the JuJu effect is getting louder: another No. 1 recruit has committed to USC because everybody wants to hoop with JuJu Watkins.
Plus: Alyssa Thomas signs with Project B, and apparently, no WNBA team wants to host the All-Star Game this year. A mess!

We were in the building for UCLA vs. Oklahoma! After a rough showing, we have to ask — is Lauren Betts really the No. 2 player in the country? We break down why the Bruins’ win doesn’t automatically make Betts the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft and how Raegan Beers held her own in the post.
Plus, Oklahoma’s freshman phenom Aaliyah Chavez showed flashes of why she’s the top recruit in the nation — even on an off shooting night. And with a WNBA coach in the building… were they there to scout Lauren Betts?
