This clip highlights how brutally competitive the WNBA is.


Don't know why I am so bummed over DF. I feel like she didn't go to the right team & wasn't given a real chance. Man, I hope she gets another chance.

All about the "D"...we played zone a lot so think that hurt her.

Aces replacing Fairs vacated spot with retired vet Tiffany Hayes. Hayes is an 11 year vet who averaged 12 points per game in 2023.

They need someone else who can score right now, not in the next couple years.

No way Fair couldn't play for the Fever

No way Fair couldn't play for the Fever

The Fever are not a strong team, but this would be one of the last teams I could see Fair playing for. They already have 3-4 players that can play the lead guard, including one player that barely comes off the court. Their major area of weakness (or lack of depth) is at the wing/sf position.

She could play for a few teams. Doesn't seem like she's going to get a chance.

Europe the next spot?

Obviously those players at lead guard are not working

That team is a mess

I wish I knew what her options are. Currently. Seems like she's playing adult rec ball in Rochester.

Would be good to see her working with a trainer on her defense & prepping for the next opportunity.

I can't imagine the emotions she has to be going through.

An adopted member of the tribe. Best of luck and stay safe.

Saw some comments from Becky Hammon in an Athlon Sports article on DF going to Israel. She basically said DF had a lot to learn & was playing the hardest spot on the floor.

Harsh, but maybe this is how good coaches are. Hope DF works on her weaknesses & gets another shot.

Hoping that a season of extra experience will give her another shot at the WNBA.

Unless there is expansion I don't see how. Not saying its right but being realistic.

There are going to be 2 more teams - Golden State in 2025 and Toronto in 2026. Don’t know if they are planning more expansion after those 2 additions.
