Kelsey Plum's Mercury Trade, Midseason Awards & Olivia Miles' "Welcome to the W" Moment | Ep.45

We might still be recovering from WNBA All-Star Weekend, but the regular season is back and the league wasted no time giving us plenty to talk about! Candace Parker and Aliyah Boston kick things off by recapping an unforgettable 2026 WNBA All-Star Weekend, including Team Coop's victory, Jonquel Jones' All-Star MVP performance, and the record-breaking attendance. They also react to Azzi Fudd becoming the first rookie and first Dallas Wings player to win the WNBA 3-Point Contest, plus all the viral moments from the StudBudz' legendary 72-hour livestream, Holly Rowe dancing to Mo Bamba, and Caitlin Clark being revealed as the cover athlete for the NBA 2K Deluxe Edition. Then it's back to the regular season, where the Indiana Fever continue making history. Candace and AB break down the Fever setting a WNBA single-season record for 100-point games, Caitlin Clark's fourth career triple-double, and Kelsey Mitchell's incredible streak of 20-point performances. They also discuss why the Fever vs. Minnesota Lynx matchup felt like a potential playoff preview, with Kelsey Mitchell and Olivia Miles trading buckets, before reacting to the blockbuster trade sending Kelsey Plum from the Los Angeles Sparks to the Phoenix Mercury. To wrap things up, Candace and Aliyah hand out their midseason WNBA awards, debating whether A'ja Wilson has taken over the MVP race, whether Olivia Miles is the frontrunner for Rookie of the Year, and which teams look like true championship contenders heading into the second half of the season.

Candace Parker

Sparks star and legendary Lady Vol Candace Parker joins the guys for this week’s episode of Knuckleheads with Quentin Richardson and Darius Miles. The three start the show talking Chicago basketball and reminiscing on those legendary 90’s Bulls that they all grew up on. Then they relate their journeys to their first dunks — from toe raises on the stairs to touching high up on every wall they saw. Plus, Candace spills the secret to winning the McDonalds dunk contest: just make your dunks (Sorry Josh Smith and J.R. Smith). Then she tells the guys why she chose Tennessee and, of course, shares a few coveted Pat Summit stories. Candace speaks about her first years in the league and the physical impact having a baby had on her body, as well as the mental aspect of being a mom and a baller at the same time. The guys ask Candace for her take on the WNBA’s new CBA, and they discuss some of the surprising differences between the men’s and women’s leagues. Candace talks about clinching the 2016 WNBA Championship and tells Q and D that — if the Sparks didn’t have some of the injuries that they did in her first few years — they would’ve had a few more championships under their belt. Just saying. Tune in for more from one of the dopest female GOATs in the game. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bonus from The Amendment: Keeping Democracy Intact with Nikole Hannah-Jones

We’re bringing you an episode of a new podcast we think you’ll love: The Amendment. A new podcast about gender, politics, and power from The 19th News and Wonder Media Network, The Amendment is hosted by award-winning journalist and 19th editor-at-large Errin Haines. Each week, Errin sits down with people who have fresh perspectives on the state of our country – and asks questions that center the voices of women, queer folks, and people of color. The Amendment adds much needed asterisks to America’s most pressing political conversations – and gets clear on the unfinished work of our democracy. In this episode, we hear from Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones on what role the free press should play in ensuring the survival of our democracy. Nikole Hannah-Jones is the creator of the 1619 Project, Knight Chair in Race and Journalism at Howard University, and a leading voice on the vital role of journalism in our democracy today. In the inaugural episode of The Amendment, Errin and Nikole discuss the current state of journalism, the high stakes of this presidential election, the importance of historical context in our political moment, the challenges faced by Black women in journalism and more.
