This episode features stats expert & international women’s hoops scout Alford Corriette. While his reporting beat for Her Hoop Stats is NY he keeps an eye on the international real hoops scene.
We take a New York minute to look back at a watershed WNBA season and a historic one for NY Liberty - their first Championship, with Head Coach Aussie Legend Sandy Brondello at the helm.
Al gives us an insight into the Liberty, their community, the growth of statistical analysis in the women’s game and his take on some of the most exciting emerging players from Australia and around the globe.
It’s a wide ranging look at international women’s hoops to kick start Series 7!
