The episode discusses the breakup of Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird, Noah Lyles' wedding mishap, and various sports topics including Azzi Fudd's press conference and WNBA news.

Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird announced that after a decade together, they’re separating. Excuse us while we fly our flags at half staff. On the opposite end of the love spectrum, Olympic track and field athlete Noah Lyles got married – and probably fired his videographer after sharing the absolute flop of a first look at his bride. Let’s just hope his wife’s love language isn’t “words of affirmation.” In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: The controversial question a reported asked Azzi Fudd in her first Dallas Wings press conference Which Olympian-producing women’s sport Quinnipiac University downgraded from D1 to club level The WNBA’s Natasha Cloud is teamless – and why the new CBA could have something to do with it Whether Dexter “Sexy Dexy” Lawrence could help Joe Burrow finally get a ring The iconic story behind the Boston Marathon’s first woman runner – and how she’s honoring herself 60 years later Send Its: Noah Lyles first look flop: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/p/DXHhjx5jez_/⁠ Bobbi Gibb statue: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/p/DXU3OgxE9Kg/⁠ Erin Andrews does IVF at 47: ⁠https://youtu.be/zZga9XWSyZU?si=VQJvJjh_UTOYIea9&t=1923⁠ Victoria Beckham goes Gap…
