Tuned into live updates from the Supreme Court on the trans athlete bans from @katiebarnes.bsky.social, the pivotal expert on this topic

Two cases involving transgender athletes and laws prohibiting transgender girls and women in girls’ and women’s sports will be argued at the Supreme Court tomorrow. Here’s what you need to know about the cases, the laws, and the arguments. www.espn.com/espn/story/_...

This Q&A from @katiebarnes.bsky.social with Nneka Ogwumike and Napheesa Collier is worth your time today: www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

Team-provided housing has emerged as a flashpoint in CBA talks. @katiebarnes.bsky.social and I explored how housing works in the WNBA, why the league may no longer want to provide it and the potential ramifications: www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

Don't miss @katiebarnes.bsky.social on Azzi Fudd before she and the Huskies officially begin their title defense tonight www.espn.com/womens-colle...

new pod with the great @katiebarnes.bsky.social -the Aces dynastic trio and Becky Hammon’s bet on culture -a history of distrust between the union and Engelbert -is “commissioner” an obsolete position? spotify.link/NDWYTdFmuXb

The Aces are officially a dynasty. I went behind the scenes on how the Las Vegas Big 3 delivered. Again. www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

@katiebarnes.bsky.social wrote a great piece on Chelsea Gray and the way the Aces hold each other accountable. I love seeing Chelsea play at the level she’s at right now. Of active players, she leads the league in W Finals games played. Tonight is #20.

It’s (almost) that time of year! I build a Christmas playlist every year that I make public on Black Friday. To make this happen, I start listening to Christmas music on Oct 1 (or now apparently). Tell me your faves! What should I be listening to this year?

Teamed up with @katiebarnes.bsky.social and @michaelvoepelespn.bsky.social to discuss why the Liberty moved on from Sandy Brondello, who could be next on the sidelines in New York and where Brondello might land (Seattle?): www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

Y’all I wrote about the StudBudz and it was just as fun as I imagined www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

Missed it by a few days, but Aug. 17 was my 10th anniversary at ESPN. I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to work here and grow up here, really. Thank you to my editors for putting up with me and to the athletes who have trusted me. Here are some of my favorite stories from the past decade.

The roof is about to pop of Mohegan as the Sun take a 16-point lead over the Sky into halftime. My ears are ringing!

Y’all! Im writing another book! I can’t wait to dive into reporting and writing about this incredible moment in women’s basketball :)

Who is watching the ultimatum queer love?!? I need people with whom to discuss!

So it’s relatively well known that I got my start in writing through fanfiction when I was a teenager. I deleted that shit a decade ago. Imagine my surprise to find a google drive of it on a subreddit last night. It was like opening a time capsule but full of old, terrible writing lol

Today: - @katiebarnes.bsky.social on trans women in sports, - @cancerletter.com's Paul Goldberg on 100 years of oncology, - Exploring the state of cancer research, w/ @aaas.org's Sudip Parikh, @jhu-bdps.bsky.social's Otis Brawley & @julierovner.bsky.social Live at 10 on 93.9 FM, AM820 or @wnyc.org

From my side quest of a Christmas novel lol Favorite: puppy love is temporary but lopsided wood-carved hearts are forever. Last: Nicholas smiled down at his grandchild and squeezed their hand. “Welcome to the North Pole.”

I just saw something about Earth’s core possibly leaking and to be totally honest there is just some news I can do without

Just in time for the start of the WNBA season, please welcome the great @michaelvoepelespn.bsky.social to BlueSky! And if you're not already, follow my colleagues @alexaphilippou.bsky.social, @kendra-andrews.bsky.social and @katiebarnes.bsky.social

I almost forgot how fun Marine Johannes is 😭

I love the wbb fan girlies but ima need y’all to cool it with the RPF on main. It’s getting weird.

The FAIR PLAY syllabus is up ahead of our Out of Your League book club meeting with @katiebarnes.bsky.social this Sunday!

I said the same thing!

Love this opportunity for Sonia Citron. She’s a great player who was underrated for much of her college career.

Some pre-draft reading. I went long on Sedona Prince: diving deep into her past, her present, and examining her future. www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

Beast of a story here by @katiebarnes.bsky.social, unpacking everything. Well worth your time. www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

So much @katiebarnes.bsky.social work cited on Last Week Tonight last night! And clips from a fantastic episode of @pablotorrefindsout.bsky.social, too! So proud of my friends for doing such important work. ❤️

The next Out of Your League Book Club is going to be a good one! I can't wait to chat with @katiebarnes.bsky.social about their book 'FAIR PLAY.' Details and link to register here:

Spent some time following Notre Dame around at the end of the regular season. www.espn.com/womens-colle...

I haven't jumped into this debate, but I'm halfway through "Fair Play" by @katiebarnes.bsky.social and can safely say everyone who wants to have a serious conversation on the issue should read the book first. And I'll guarantee 99.99999% of people popping off on an app near you have not done that.

I really need people to talk about Paradise with. Like my mind is forever blown because of this show

If anyone needs me, I will be watching UConn vs. Texas in the 2003 Final Four.

Sometimes I am flabbergasted that I used to have so much to say on social media 😂

If you aren’t caught up on the Emilia Perez Oscars scandal, I’ve written up an explainer. Includes my review of what turns out to be a pretty lousy movie. www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

Sharing this great interview with Marsha and Sylvia conducted the year after the Stonewall uprising. They discuss their understanding of themselves as transvestites, transsexuals, and women, but the part of their identity most commonly erased is that of radical revolutionaries

Begging everyone to go read @katiebarnes.bsky.social’s excellent book ‘Fair Play’ to understand how we got to this moment.

Woke up to so much news! Beyoncé! Luka! DeWanna Bonner to Indiana! This is why I don’t sleep in!

Brittney Griner, Jewell Loyd, Kelsey Plum, Alyssa Thomas and Satou Sabally are just a few of the big names changing teams 👀 Stay up-to-date on all the latest moves in the WNBA ✍️

I’m old enough to remember when NO ONE moved in the WNBA. To think this free agency is just a preview for what we’re in for in 2026 👀

Award winning journalist & author @katiebarnes.bsky.social explains the “Protection of Women & Girls in Sports Act” bill that the House passed on Tuesday. Who & what could be affected if the Senate passes it, and potential unintended consequences of the bill. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/g...

Shyanne sellers just hit a little Double clutch over the head with some English off the glass. Incredible stuff!

A 40-year-old man arrested earlier this year for stalking Paige Bueckers pled guilty today to second degree stalking. He received a one-year suspended sentence and three years probation with specific conditions. www.espn.com/womens-colle...

Ain’t no party like an Ashlynn Shade party

Y’all. I made a little tomato sauce tonight to go with some tortellini and it slaps. I’ve appointed myself in charge of Christmas dinner. Thank you.

Wbb beef with dunks is a fun place to be. I like it.

Kaitlyn Chen just broke a Louisville player’s ankles so bad, she sat her down! My word!

I’ve been to 41 which is both an accomplishment and incredibly embarrassing lol

Watching Fortune Feimster’s new stand up and I full on lost the ability to breathe because I was laughing so hard
