About this episode

Quita discusses the performance of rookies in WNBA training camps and the implications of early roster cuts.

Some rookies are already proving they belong, while others are struggling to adjust as WNBA training camps heat up, and teams are already making tough roster decisions. Quita breaks down which first-year players are cooking early, who may need more time to develop, and the surprising waives that are starting to roll in as franchises narrow down their final rosters. Plus, what these early cuts could mean for the future of some young players and which rookies are putting themselves in position to make an immediate impact this season.
