Confession: Cynt Marshall isn’t neccesarily a women’s basketball figure. BUT, she is a woman, and she is in basketball.

The Dallas Mavericks CEO was recently named one of the 30 Most Powerful Women in Sports by Adweek ($). She was brought in last year by Mark Cuban to turn around a culture that had become extremly toxic for women. By all accounts, Marshall is well on her way to turning around the Mavericks.

The vibrant soon-to-be 60 year old connects personally with anyone she comes in contact with. She loves life, she loves people, and she’s making an impact.

On Satuday, July 20, Marshall spoke at the Dallas Wings Inspiring Women Night. We got Cynt’s permission to use her chat for our program, and we couldn’t be more thankful. We know that you’ll be inspired and moved by one of the most infectous personalities in sports leadership.

WNBA expansion is a hot topic.  While many believe it should be a long-term goal of the league, incoming commissioner Cathy Englebert recently told the Chicago Sun-Times, “As I transition into my new role, one of my priorities right now is to make sure each and every one of our 12 existing franchises is doing as well as they possibly can before we seriously consider expanding.”

Daniel Escott and Max Abrahams are passionate about bringing a WNBA franchise to Toronto.  They certainly have detractors, who have voiced their own opinions about the pair's audacious goals.  In this episode, hear why Daniel and Max think Toronto is ready, and why they think it can happen in time for the 2020 season.

Shea Serrano (@SheaSerrano) of The Ringer has only been a women's basketball fan for around two years now, but he's all in!  The writer is known for his best selling books: The Rap Year Book, and Basketball (And Other Things).  In October he'll release his first hardcover offering, Movies (And Other Things).  We talk about his writing style, his awesome generous following, "The FOH Army," and of course his fandom of the Las Vegas Aces.   Acheil Tac (@BIG_A23) has a really neat story.  Born in Sudan, her family moved to Egypt when she was a child, then at age nine her family migrated to the U.S., settling in the Dallas area.  Tac first competed in the game of basketball as a freshman at Sachse (TX) High School, and blossomed into a Division I prospect.  After four years at the University of North Texas, Acheil moved on to play professionally in Switzerland.  But an injury caused her to take a year off from the game, and in that year, she wrote a book!  The Reality Behind the Glamour of College Athletics helps guide future college athletes through the recruiting process, playing career, and even post-collegiate career.

Ari Chambers (@ariivory) has been a social media staple for WNBA fans for many years.  The multi-talented journalist has parlayed that coverage into a job with Bleacher Report/House of Highlights. Ari knows the game, but more importantly, wants to connect the fans with the personal stories of the WNBA athlete.

Maybe one day Ari will be doing a story on our next guest, Hailey Tucker.  The lanky 6-3 guard who shoots the ball routinely from 35’ had multiple D1 offers when coming out of Bartlesville (OK) High School.  But in the end, she chose Southwestern Oklahoma State, and Division 2.  She became an All-American, two time conference player of the year, and led her team to the D2 title game as a senior. Hailey just announced she would start her pro career in Sweden.

Kelly Graves likes to keep it loose.  Always has, always will, and he refuses to change his approach as his team prepares for their biggest season yet.  Oregon lost a tight Final Four matchup with eventual champion Baylor in 2019.  With a host of starters back, including triple-double machine Sabrina Ionescu, it's not hard to envision the Ducks hoisting a trophy in April of 2020.

In this in-depth interview, Coach Graves discusses his superstar senior (Sabrina), why he might have a future prime minister on his team, why he thinks the three point line should be moved back NOW, a long-lost Wendy's commercial he appeared in, and so much more.
