WNBA Records Update, Fever–Mercury Drama, and Team Ratings Breakdown
Sylvia and Madeleine open with corrections and new WNBA records: Marina Mabrey ties the single-game scoring record with 53, Dominique Malonga becomes the youngest to score 30+ with 37 at age 20, and the Tempo set a regulation team scoring record with 125; they also note the Mystics–Fire four-overtime game (124–123, 3:35) with four players fouling out and mention Camila Cardoso’s 13-for-13 shooting and Cheryl Reeve tying the regular-season coaching wins record at 379. They recap Wings results (win vs Seattle in OT; losses to Aces and Lynx) and Fever games, including a 6-point first quarter, multiple technicals, Caitlin Clark’s back injury, and Alyssa Thomas receiving a postgame Flagrant Two and suspension, alongside discussion of racist language in fan discourse. They review other notable games, standings changes (Valkyries up to third), explain offensive/defensive ratings, assess Wings player strengths/weaknesses, preview upcoming games and the Commissioner’s Cup, and close with swish list items including Kelsey Mitchell’s Puma deal.
