For everyone that keep saying well DT, Candace Parker and Breanna Stewart were rookies when they made the Olympic team WHY not Caitlin.
Parker was coming off 2 straight national championships with Tennessee and had the best rookie debut in WNBA history she went on to win MVP
I know alot of people mad Candace Parker didn't do a farewell tour but can you blame her when she's been so disrespected by her peers. Like 5 years ago she was voted most overrated by players within the league so I don't blame her for not wanting to accept fake love from people
So the Aces and Liberty are playing a pre-season game with all of their starters playing and we can't see it because.....the wnba continues to fail at marketing
I need a friend circle like Candace Parker and Maya Moore because the way nothing leaked out side their circles with major news involving them is loyalty at it finest.
The WNBA went 6 months with only I believe only one Covid-19 positive player. What are The NBA, NHL and NFL players doing for this stuff to be spreading like this
The Los Angeles Sparks need to be planning Candace Parker jersey retirement ceremony right now as we speak. I don't know have fast they can put it together but her jersey needs to be in the rafters before the season ends
Yup and none of them was spot lighted. Candace Parker, Nneka Ogwumike, Angel Mccoughtry, Aj'a Wilson, Layshia Clarendon Natalie Achonwa. We're all their espn didn't mention the legends that were in the building not once
WNBA you can't complain about the league not having money when you lose money by not letting your fans access events like the 3pt contest, Skill Challenge and The WNBA Draft.
Don't keep crying about spilled milk when you're the ones spilling it
She's actually right. Every rookie has had a learning curve when they entered the league. Candace Parker is the only rookie that came in and completely dominated her veteran counterparts but Parker was also something that we have never seen before. Most Rookies will not be CP3
“Will Caitlin Clark come into the WNBA and do what she is doing right now? Immediately, absolutely not.”
Sheryl Swoopes says Caitlin Clark will not walk right into the WNBA and dominate.
Dearica Hamby situation is one of the reason why I always say to fans stop asking these Players for loyalty to your favorite teams or getting mad when they leave cause these front office people are not loyal to them Dearica was Vegas longest tenured player and they did her dirty
The choice of words is nasty
@TMZ
and the friends she was with was Sydney Leroux and Candace Parker.
Stop trying to make Vanessa Bryant feel guilty for having fun
NBA fans talking about Becky Hammon should just wait for her turn in the NBA. Um she's been waiting for 7 years now and had to standby while former players and people with no real coaching experience get a chance before her. Glad she's getting the shot she deserves
Are we really shocked Candace Parker played all season on a broken foot, this is a player who won a national championship, had the best rookie debut in wnba history won mvp and rookie of the year and a gold medal all in the same season with a torn rotator cuff. She's a warrior
@ea_badoni
Guess what with out CC team USA plays on NBC sports just like the men. They've been getting national coverage during the Olympics before Caitlin Clark was born so stop it with thar
The
#WNBA
has opened an investigation into the $100,000 bonus payments to each Las Vegas Aces player, multiple sources with direct knowledge tell
@TheNextHoops
.
I hate when random men on the internet say "put me in the wnba ill drop 65 points a night" as if these women aren't professional athletes have top notch training and practice against men in practice.
So to then man who thinks he can beat a wnba player. Sir no u can't
Even though she's not playing if Vegas repeats Candace Parker would become the first player in WNBA history to win 3 championships with 3 different franchises.
Stop asking these NBA players about The WNBA when it's obvious that they don't know nothing about it and can we please stop the narrative that The WNBA Players want to be paid the same amount as The NBA Players because none of them never said that.
Yall wonder why Candace Parker doesn't want a farewell tour. Cuz she knows the love gonna be fake for a lot of people. You see it in the way they vote all the time how people really feel about her
NBA players talking about how grueling the schedule was these past two seasons for them.....welcome to the world of the wnba players who play all year round for most of their careers just make living. They don't have the luxury of sitting home and rehabbing after a season.
Geno telling Candace Parker you're trying to be the best player in the world and still not picking her in 2016 is foul....uconn hasn't won a championship since
The Los Angeles Sparks are the prime example of what happeneds when you let your franchise player walk out the door. The Sparks are starting to see that Candace Parker meant more to their franchise than just buckets
The WNBA will be missing some known faces at the start of 2019 season
Lindsay Whalen(retired)
Monique Currie(retired)
Cappie Pondexter(retired)
Skylar Diggins-Smith(pregnancy)
Maya Moore (Personal)
Breanna Stewart (injured)
Rebekkah Brunson (injured)
Angel McCoughtry (injured)
For all the people saying she's not getting calls or free throws. Caitlin Clark is 3rd in the league in Free Throws made and Attempts. So she's getting calls and getting to the line
I agree with what Sheryl Swoopes said here. Coming out of college into The WNBA is a completely different animal the pace and physicality takes time getting use to. Candace Parker is the only player I can think of that came in from college and completely dominated The WNBA
Ima drop this here cause this post is trying to make it sound like something it’s not cause Sheryl Swoopes said what she said and told no lies. Y’all just looking for a reason to call her a hater
LA missing the playoffs for the first time in 9 years their first year without Candace Parker shows how important she was to that team.
Marina Mabrey
Chelsea Gray
Candace Parker
Riquna Williams
Are all players GM Derek Fisher let go
They are all going to the playoffs
Imma need yall to hype up the Charli Collier and Aliyah Boston match up the same way yall hyped up the Paige Bueckers and Caitlin Clark match. I'm looking at you
@espn
Former WNBA MVP
@nnekaogwumike
informed the Los Angeles Sparks on Wednesday that she intends to leave in free agency, sources told ESPN.
Ogwumike has played her entire 12-year WNBA career with the Sparks since being drafted No. 1 overall in 2012 and felt it was important to
Why should The WNBA cater to men who says women belong in the kitchen. It's doesn't matter if women lower the court and dunk they will still find a reason why they don't watch the wnba
It doesn't matter how much they try to push that narrative The fact remains The Face of The WNBA has always been a Black Woman
1997-2000 Sheryl Swoopes
2000-2008 Lisa Leslie
2008-2020 Candace Parker
2020- A'ja Wilson
The WNBA has been trying to market itself with a white face for as long as I can remember. Bird, Taurasi, Sabrina, Clark... Not denying the talent of these players, but they do not represent the sport at large, or the fanbase at large.
I need for The WNBA To Be Petty Just One Time and have The Chicago Sky at home during their ring night play The Sparks in the season opener.
This needs to be done for the culture. Also so I can have the time of my life watching that game. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Um no
@airswoopes22
disrespect will be tolerated. Before you pop off you better check her resume and if you don't know it she's a
4x Wnba Champion
3x WNBA MVP
3x WNBA DPOY
2x WNBA Scoring Champion
NCAA Champion
She is known as Air Swoopes For a reason. Don't play wit her
Alot of people think Vegas is being petty with the way they're celebrating their championship Vegas is not being petty. You wanna see petty go watch the Chicago Sky 2021 Championship Parade they brought a door DT punched to the celebration....That's petty
For The people who keep asking why Candace Parker ain't on the cover of the new 2k23. It's because she already made history by being the first WNBA player to be on the cover of 2k22.
Laughing at the men whose telling Candace Parker to get off Kelly Loeffler team because they didn't agree with Candace statement.
Um sir she doesn't play for her team
Only 4 players have 1,000 playoff PTS
Only 8 players have 200 playoff AST
Only 3 players have 500 playoff REB
Only 3 players have 100 playoff BLK
Only 2 players have 100 playoff STL
Only 1 player has them all.
Candace Parker 🐐
@Candace_Parker
@chicagosky
Last year, adidas and the City of Chicago named September 16th
#CandaceParkerDay
in honor of
@Candace_Parker
and her undeniable ability to inspire others, lead her team and give back to her communities.
At this point yall playing in Becky Hammon face. She's been an assistant coach for 7 years now. Has coached a team to a championship in the summer league. She's paid her dues what more does she have to prove to get a Head Coaching Position.
Reading Dearica Hamby post on IG made me look at Vegas in another light. So players can't have control of their reproductive systems now.
I take back my statement from earlier this wasn't a business move.
I hate that people skip over the fact that Candace Parker has a signature shoe plus an apparel line though Adidas thats about to release its 3rd collection. Like the Ace3 collection is the closest thing we have to an WNBA player creating their own brand Like Jordan
All these statements that's coming pertaining Brittney Griner. Make it seem like they're just finding this information out the same time as us.
Once again has anyone spoken to BG to make sure she is OK.
I don't care if Brittney Griner never plays basketball again if that's her choice. I'm just happy that she's safe and that's she's coming home and that's all that matters
Like what did Candace Parker do to yall for people to hate on her so much. Like did she steal your girl, take ya lunch money, beat your favorite player. like do yall just hate her cuz she's good at her jobs, is it cuz of the endorsements and money she sees. What is it?
We don't know what Candace was at mentality at in this point. Maybe she felt like her let her team down or maybe she didn't want reporters asking her when will she retire after she loss. Nobody knows why she walked off early so don't attack her character just from video
I wonder who retires Candace Parker jersey first. LA or Chicago or does she become the first player to have her no.3 retired by 3 different teams? Los Angeles, Chicago and Vegas

Yall come on this App and say anything. Cheryl Miller, Candace Parker, Breanna Stewart, Diana Taurasi Maya Moore. Will still all be ranked above CC when she finsh her college career. Clark is good but she's not close to none of these GOATs
All the Caitlin Clark fans came at vet wnba when they said Clark was gonna have a reality check and the the transition from college to The wnba was gonna be hard. Yall called them haters. Well u are seeing what wnba rookies go though live. Welcome to the wnba
#WelcometotheW
I know Tina is having an amazing season but what Candace Parker is doing with Chicago is out of this world 8-0 with her while she's been available. She has to be in the MVP conversation
What's sad about the Liz Cambage situation is the response from her own country and media. It seems as if their happy about whats being reported without no real proof or evidence actually reported
