We have a very special episode this week with the one and only Ryan Ruocco! We talk all things happening in the WNBA, including our reaction to Napheesa Collier’s press conference, before getting into a really great discussion about referees and how WNBA games should be officiated. Ryan then shares all the different areas of growth that he’s seen in the WNBA since he started calling games in 2013, his favorite playoff and Finals moments that he’s gotten to cover, and the origin of his iconic “You Bet!” call. We then recap the semifinals and our takeaways about the Las Vegas Aces, Phoenix Mercury, Indiana Fever, and Minnesota Lynx, before previewing the Finals match between the Aces and Mercury.
