"I think the market here itself is just going to be better for a women’s basketball program," said Sun guard Saniya Rivers.

The Indiana Fever phenom will miss the WNBA All-Star Game and 3-point contest at her home arena in devastating news. She was obviously emotional about it.

On Tuesday, WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert spoke with Connecticut reporters to address the "elephant in the room" and what she’s looking for as the league prepares to expand to 18 teams come 2030.

The WNBA star will not participate in the All-Star events after suffering an injury against the Connecticut Sun earlier this week.

I think the time is right you can see the energy, the excitement, the venue is large enough to host women’s professional basketball."

Fans sold out TD Garden for a highly anticipated WNBA game between the Connecticut Sun and the Indiana Fever Tuesday night. A lot of families and young basketball players were excited to see their role models hit the parquet.

Healey praised the Sun for bringing so many figures from so many corners of sports and business together in the name of women’s sports.

The Indiana Fever are heading into the All-Star break playing good basketball. With Caitlin Clark back in the mix, they’ve won two straight games by a combined 36 points and are gaining confidence at the perfect time. One player who's stepped up during the streak? Sophie Cunningham.
