More from Madagascar.

People always want to be permanently mad at AT meanwhile the people on whose behalf they are invoking the rage always seem to be cool with her. #wnba

I absolutely get that it was a tough choice but Monique Akoa-Makani being a starter on a team that is going to the finals but not on the All Rookie team doesn’t sit right. #wnba

Not y’all calling AB “Captain Hook” and “Elbows”? 😂😂😂 #wnba

ICYMI there were large youth led protests in Madagascar last week. Low to no coverage in the anglophone press.

Burkina Faso : le chef de la junte, Ibrahim Traoré, confirme l’arrestation de six fonctionnaires ivoiriens

Fever and Aces both had 67 shots, Aces made more. Aces had a better percentage at the 3. Turnovers were also about the same. The biggest difference to me is that the Fever had 34 free throw shots and the Aces had 11. #WNBA

The Fever's +23 in free throw attempts today is tied for 2nd-largest margin in WNBA Playoffs history. It's the largest margin since Phoenix was +23 over Detroit in Game 3 of the 2007 Finals. The largest margin is +25 by Detroit in the 2004 Eastern Conference Semifinals.

*Laughs in Minnesota Lynx*. #wnba

You know who would have been great on the Aces right about now? Kelsey Plum. 😔 #wnba

One day someone is going to clean Aaliyah Boston’s clock and the everyone is just gonna be like… #wnba

If you’re the Aces, are you bringing Jewell back next season? I’m leaning towards no but is that too harsh? #wnba

Kelsey swings her arm out and A’ja gets called for the foul? 🤔 #wnba

Nalyssa Smith looks so confident. Gotta hand it to Becky, most of us thought that was a bum trade but it’s turned out so well. #wnba

Lynne Robert’s and the Sparks front office should be wondering how three players they waived are carrying another team deep into the playoffs while the Sparks failed to qualify with the team they kept.

Same. #wnba

Local authorities said there was a shooting Sunday morning at a Mormon church in Grand Blanc, Michigan, which is now “actively on fire.”

The far-right digital network Black Sun Rising Militia planned to paralyze Europe in a coordinated attack on synagogues, mosques and several Swedish media houses last year, reports SVT Nyheter

“A coordinated attack on synagogues, mosques and media houses was to paralyze Europe last year. SVT can now reveal that the leader of a far-right digital terror network has been convicted in Brazil for planning and organizing attacks in Sweden & other European countries” www.svt.se/nyheter/utri...

Caitlin responded to this with “next game the elite bench mob is going to be even more unruly.” $200 fine, no suspensions. #wnba

Anyway, may this be the year that AT finally gets her ring. #wnba

Yes… but… How many times have we seen Caitlin Clark on the court in civilian clothes, yelling at a ref for a call she disagreed with this season? Like yes but also no? #wnba

Monique Akoa-Makani (Cameroon) is the only rookie playing starter minutes on a WNBA semi finals team.

A lot of people on this app are about to respond “clearly the NBA watches basketball but doesn’t know ball”. 😂 #wnba

Absolutely not. Short of making her leg magically disappear what was AT supposed to do? Phee initiated the contact. She twisted her ankle - not her knee where any incidental contact was made. If anything Phee needs to have a word with the people who make her shoes. #wnba

On just about any other team I’d be worried about their season being over. But the Lynx play team ball and have the deepest bench in the league. The series is far from over. #wnba

Looks like a clean pick with incidental contact. And Phee should be wearing high tops or ankle braces like BG and Bri Jones. #wnba

The WNBA coach who should have been losing their shit all season about officiating is Noelle Quinn.

Just checking - are we mad at Alyssa a Thomas for being strong? Because isn’t that the same leg that Phee injured earlier in the season? #wnba

Sug Sutton to #Unrivaled makes so much sense. She was my sleeper pick for most improved and a truly slept on element of the Mystics’ success. #wnba

A Spanish naval vessel will join the Global Sumud Flotilla to provide assistance and, if necessary, conduct rescues, says Spanish PM Pedro Sanchez. Italy earlier announced it was dispatching a frigate after a night of drone attacks on the flotilla opposed by the Israeli gov't.

WOW. The lead plaintiff is a Latino man who's been here legally for 24 years. He was grabbed off the street by plainclothes federal agents who didn't even ASK about his status. He was detained overnight and only released once a supervisor realized he had been illegally arrested.

There's a reason they seem to be mostly targeting women to beat up, and we all know what it is.

The problem with the New York Liberty seems to be a GM who thinks his job is helping Sabrina be successful rather than building a successful franchise. #wnba

Nothing about the fact that San was injured for most of the regular season. And the fact that their starting 5 lineup had the least amount of playing time together of any line up?? #wnba

I suspect they’re going to get a mediocre NBA guy. #wnba

“How many African leaders go to the UN and address the world in African languages?”

A Kenyan police officer who was part of the country’s mission to Haiti went missing in March 2025 while on duty in the country. During a speech President Ruto declared the officer dead but they hadn’t told his family yet. The police finally confirmed to the family that he was dead today.

It’s gone so quickly from ‘boat people’ to all immigrants. So quickly from ‘I don’t mind if they come here legally and pay taxes’ to ‘actually it’s anyone foreign’. We are living in the ‘first they came for’ poem. All to give the population a scapegoat so the super rich can hoard yet more wealth.

A few years ago, Lauren, Nef, Courtney, and I wrote an article looking at which coaches get fired in the WNBA (and which coaches do not!). The pattern we are seeing this year fits the story we told! internationaljournalofsportmanagement.com/firing-discr...
