Northwestern friends! #1 NU field hockey takes on #8 Princeton in just about an hour in an exceedingly rare Monday afternoon top ten matchup. Be sure to join me on Big Ten Plus!

Forgot how awesome it feels to watch the ‘Cats win a game like this. Man was that fun

Northwestern, Indiana, and UCLA running the conference. Unsurprising imo

*only gets one point from their last two matches, sorry

A Nashville loss to Miami and a Fire win over NE would book them a top seven seed (also if the fire win and Orlando only get two points from their last two matches)

The #WNBA had officially named Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson the 2025 WNBA MVP.

She is the first player ever to win it four times.

The voting breakdown for MVP:

New, w/ @mulchy.bsky.social & @djbyrnes1.bsky.social:

ICE shot & killed an immigrant in the Chicago suburbs yesterday.

Then they immediately gave a misleading account of events.

Chicago erupted in chaos and a father who lived here for decades is dead. This is what really happened:
What happened to Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez
Immigration agents shot and killed an unarmed 38-year-old father outside Chicago on Friday—and their initial narrative of events was quickly disproven by videos captured by witnesses.

The great @zachlowenba.bsky.social often refers to using "VORPs and SCHNORPs" in award evaluation. I put together a similar set of data for WNBA awards and wanted to share the top offense/defense ratings and overall wins above replacement from averaging four advanced metrics.
Rank/Player/Offense/Defense/Total (Value)
1. A'ja Wilson: 5.0/2.3/3.6 (9.0)
2. Napheesa Collier: 5.0/1.9/3.4 (7.4)
3. Allisha Gray: 3.7/-0.3/1.7 (6.9)
4. Jackie Young: 3.7/0.2/1.9 (6.6)
5. Nneka Ogwumike: 2.7/0.6/1.6 (6.3)
6. Alyssa Thomas: 2.2/1.3/1.8 (5.9)
7. Veronica Burton: 2.2/0.8/1.5 (5.6)
8. Aliyah Boston: 2.4/0.4/1.4 (5.6)
9. Kelsey Mitchell: 3.7/-1.2/1.3 (5.6)
10. Dearica Hamby: 2.8/-0.2/1.3 (5.6)
11. Rhyne Howard: 3.2/0.2/1.7 (5.4)
12. Sabrina Ionescu: 2.9/0.3/1.6 (5.4)
13. Skylar Diggins: 2.0/0.4/1.2 (5.3)
14. Brionna Jones: 2.4/0.5/1.4 (5.1)
15. Gabby Williams: 0.1/1.7/0.9 (4.8)
16. Courtney Williams: 1.3/0.9/1.1 (4.8)
17. Paige Bueckers: 3.0/-0.5/1.3 (4.8)
18. Breanna Stewart: 2.0/1.8/1.9 (4.7)

20. Alanna Smith: 1.2/1.3/1.2 (4.4)

Mistake by Harbaugh on that last timeout. If he waited until about 15 seconds left the bills are in no man’s land

Reminded me of that clip people are always posting where he’s talking about Mahomes after a made field goal in the game the Chiefs aren’t even in

New from me: Angel Reese told no lies about the sorry state of the Chicago Sky

Jeff Pagliocca committed organizational malpractice with his roster decisions. He needs to be fired. Reese just said what anyone paying attention already knew.

Angel Reese was right. The Sky are the WNBA’s most mismanaged team

I've moved past MIP I think we need to have a conversation about Veronica Burton getting All-W considerations

VB says postgame that she will be using her time off between games to get her hair braided, the Valks play next on Saturday vs Washington
noahcoffman.bsky.social
Incredible numbers from VB
acrossthetimeline.com
With 25 points and 13 assists today, Veronica Burton joins Caitlin Clark as the only players in WNBA history to have 60+ PTS and 35+ AST over a 3-game span.

Burton is the only player to do that with 5 or fewer total turnovers.

If you saw this post earlier with a mistake in it, my bad! VB’s MIP campaign, unlike my posting career, continues unabated. All stats via @acrossthetimeline.com, as always
noahcoffman.bsky.social
More history for Veronica Burton, who just became the first player in WNBA history to record 10+ AST and 0 TOV in three separate games within the same season!

She is also the first player to ever put up a single game line of 24 pts, 14 ast, 0 tov. Incredible performance tonight despite the loss
noahcoffman.bsky.social
Veronica Burton with perhaps the best individual half by any WNBA player this season.

18 points, 7 assists, 1 rebound, 1 steal, 0 turnovers, 36 total points created. To lead a team down four rotation players to a 12 point lead at the break over one of the best teams in the league

Had to briefly celebrate Veronica Burton's performance—defensive, of course—against the Washington Mystics, and also looked at some Golden State Valkyries offensive development. Plus, one key point for tonight's rematch against the Chicago Sky.

Valkyries go into weekend with playoff odds rising
Veronica Burton set team records against the Washington Mystics, and the Valkyries can boost their playoff odds with another win over the Chicago Sky.

So many great pieces of Across the Timeline’s database! More fun with their numbers:

VB is now on pace to become the first player in WNBA history to improve by 7 PPG, 3 APG, and 2 RPG from season to season (min. 5 games played in each year)

Has to be the MIP front runner at this point
acrossthetimeline.com
Veronica Burton tonight is the 3rd player in WNBA history to finish a game with:

30+ PTS
7+ REB
7+ AST
75% or better FG%

She joins Sabrina Ionescu and Napheesa Collier.
