In Episode 1398, Sean Woodley is joined by Crina Mustafa (Homestand Sports, Enjoy BBall) to talk about the Toronto Raptors reported pursuit of Las Vegas Aces head coach Becky Hammon, the WNBA’s potential expansion to Toronto, and the WNBA Canada Exhibition game between the Chicago Sky and Minnesota Lynx going down this Saturday at Scotiabank Arena. Off the top, Sean and Crina discuss why the Raptors likely will not land Becky Hammon to be their head coach, partly due to timing, and largely due to the Raptors simply not offering a more attractive situation than coaching the defending WNBA champions. Next, they dig into the WNBA’s potential expansion to Toronto, the issues that are ratcheting up the calls for more teams in the W, and why Toronto is a no-brainer destination for a new team. Lastly, Sean and Crina tee up Sky vs. Lynx in Toronto this Saturday, pinpoint key players to watch, and preview the new WNBA regular season which is just days away from tip-off.

This headline makes it sound like the Raptors head coaching job is not desirable, and like they are desperate to hire a coach. Why is the Toronto press, including podcasters, promoting this narrative?? It is CRAZY.
That’s BS! If she has a chance at coaching an NBA team she will take it over the fricken WNBA!! Stop it! Be real guys.
