The playoffs are HERE and we’re getting into everything that’s caught our eye so far - the biggest storylines, standout performances, teams making noise and the questions we still have heading into the next stretch.

This week, we're also talking Caitlin Clark’s brand-new Nike signature shoe. What actually makes people buy a basketball shoe? Does the athlete matter more than the shoe itself? And what does it mean for women’s basketball to have more and more players getting their own signature sneakers?

Plus, we’re talking The Pondys - HATP’s community-voted end-of-season awards - and putting our own takes to the test.

Playoffs, shoes, awards and a few opinions we’re probably going to have to defend.

We're back!

In this episode, Gracie, Kate and Victoria debrief the trip: the nerves of our first media accreditation, what it was like stepping behind the scenes, the stories we couldn't fit into a post and the people who made Berlin so special.

The Washington Mystics are young, chaotic and suddenly right in the middle of the playoff conversation.

This week, local Mystics fan Falon Turner joins Gracie and Kate to break down one of the most exciting young teams in the WNBA. We talk about Washington’s recent run, their playoff chances, the arrival of Betnijah Laney-Hamilton and why Rori Harmon might be one of the most underrated bench players in the league.

We also get Falon’s perspective on following the Mystics from DC before finding out what officially counts as Young Ho Behaviour.

The rebuild might be moving a little faster than expected…
