It’s recognized by FIBA — rare for a U.S. women’s league outside the WNBA — and it’s becoming a place where players continue their careers, get seen by scouts, and find community. | — | ||||||
| 9/9/25 | Ep. 9: A Basketball Trailblazer | What if your mom played basketball from high school, to college, and then for the WNBA. And what if as their kid, basketball wasn’t really your thing?

| 1/15/20 | Ep. 15 - Original San Francisco Warrior Tom Meschery On The Team’s Return To The City | Tom Meschery was the first player in Golden State Warriors franchise history to have his jersey number retired.

| 7/11/19 | Ep. 14 - A homegrown national sportswriter on the team's final days in the Town | Marcus Thompson writes about basketball for the national outlet The Athletic.

| 6/20/19 | Ep. 11 - Illuminaries bring Warriors spirit to Oakland walls | The Golden State Warriors season ended last week with a dramatic loss to the Toronto Raptors. It’s not the send-off Oakland fans were hoping for as the team bids farewell to Oracle Arena. Now, a season of promise turns into an off-season of uncertainty. There are still signs of the team all over the Town and that’s not going to change any time soon. In fact, the logo for this podcast is the iconic Warriors’ bridge image dripping off a brick wall, and that’s from a mural in Oakland by Illuminaries. In this edition of Bounce, we catch up with Illuminaries co-founder Tim Hon whose crew are painting for the Dubs. | — | ||||||
| 6/13/19 | Ep. 10 - The Warriors leave BART | Tomorrow night, the Warriors will play their last game in Oakland. When the team leaves the Coliseum, they’ll leave behind a stadium that’s ideal for public transit riders. | — | ||||||
| 6/6/19 | Ep. 9 - Meet Stephen Curry's barber | We all know sports is a business. That’s why the Warriors are leaving for San Francisco — to make more money. But sports are also emotional. Sentimental, even. In the lead up to the NBA Finals, Stephen Curry decided to give back in a very sports way. He identified 30 people in the community who made a difference in his and others’ lives and gave them each a pair of specially crafted shoes from his main sponsor, the athletic wear company Under Armour. Curry’s barber Yusef Wright is one of those people. He works out of Benny Adem Grooming Parlor, just a few blocks away from the Warriors downtown practice court. In this episode of Bounce, we went to that barbershop and found a sense of peace, purpose, and hometown pride. | — | ||||||

| 5/16/19 | Ep. 6 - The Warriors take a little bit of Oakland with them to Chase Center | The Golden State Warriors are rolling, now. Last night they crushed the Portland Trailblazers in the first game of the Western Conference Finals. But, win or lose, the team is leaving for San Francisco next year. In the latest from Bounce, we're looking at how the Golden State Warriors organization is teaming up with local businesses like Oakland's Bakesale Betty to bring some East Bay flavor to the City. | — | ||||||
| 5/9/19 | Ep. 5 - Will East Oakland businesses near the Warriors’ arena survive when they leave? | You can say the Warriors relocating to San Francisco is a business move. With courtside suites costing more than $2 million a year in a city with some of the wealthiest folks on the planet, the franchise is poised to make a lot more money. Not to mention the businesses popping up near the Warriors’ new billion-dollar Chase Center. But what about the Oakland establishments near Oracle Arena in East Oakland? What are their prospects after the team leaves? In this episode of Bounce, we're headed down Hegenberger Road to see how businesses are feeling about the Warriors bouncing to San Francisco. | — | ||||||
