The 27th season of the WNBA tipped off on Friday with 12 teams from two Conferences locking horns. Moreover, the current season has created extra hype among fans as the Phoenix Mercury star Brittney Griner returned to the hardwood after her ordeal in Russia.
WNBA Champion called out for her fashion choice
During Saturday’s game between the defending champions Las Vegas Aces and the Seattle Storm, Aces star Kelsey Plum took a sly dig at her own teammate for the color of her socks. She said, “Candace Parker, she’s wearing all-black shoes with white socks. Which is like, criminal, but she can pull it off,” during a mid-game interview with ESPN.
Parker repeatedly blocked Stephen Curry
As a promotional ad campaign ahead of the WNBA season, the Dubs superstar paired up with Candace Parker and Sue Bird for commercials for $11 billion worth vehicle retailer company, Carmax. In both commercials, the WNBA superstars troll Curry on various grounds. Bird trolled him for having more championship rings than him, including her college wins.
