My little brother ran into Becky Hammon at our local YMCA in Rapid City where she is from, and was just starting out her WNBA career. She agreed to play a 3 on 3 game against him and some other guys. My brother at the time was a 5’7” sophomore who couldn’t even start on the varsity ball team. He went on to defend her pretty well and even blocked her shot which he still brings up to this day. Lol.

LMAO " if LeBron played in the WNBA, he'd score 840 pts a game"

-Dave Chappelle 🤣

The fact that the WNBA and Chelsea Gray both went dead silent after the offer should tell you everything you need to know.

I just love that her best response was to tweet "Dumbass" like she really thought she did something with that🤣

[Undrafted]

I would take all of my life savings, my family's life savings, my friends life savings, and bet it on the HS boys team, and I will forever be getting the utmost gratitude of these people.

A buddy of mine was dating a WNBA player for a while. She came to our Tuesday night men's run and played with us a few times. She was average in that group. In other words, a WNBA player (top few hundred in the world) is no better than the guys at your local random gym. No knock on her either, she was one of the best women ballers I've ever seen in person and the fact that she hung with the guys was impressive.

I could dunk as a sophomore in high school and was blocking shots off the boards and I wasn't even the most athletic dude on my team. When I was in college at a D-1 Big Ten school, me and my stoner freshman friends who all played basketball in HS ran into some of the girls on the basketball team at the rec center and we ran them off the court. We were just too fast, strong, and athletic for them. Yes they were skilled but the overwhelming athletic advantage we had over them made up for it in spades. It's hard to score when you can't get a shot off cause your opponent is taller, quickier, and can easily out jump you. It ain't sexism it is just biology. Any one that thinks the WNBA team has a chance against a good high school boys team...is either lying for feminist brownie points or never seriously played basketball.

That one game would get more viewers than an entire season of WNBA games combined

The UK side that smashed the US women’s soccer team wasn’t a professional side, it was a mixture of older retired players & some current players who were in lower leagues etc.
Lee Trundle (who scored 4 of the goals for the men’s side) was 46 years old & would freely admit was well past his best - by about two decades!
He was a great goal scorer in his professional playing days though, & even though heavier, slower & less mobile he still showed the ladies how it should be done! Well played Lee👍.

In highschool, our girls team were state champions with 3 girls eventually playing D1 and going on to the wnba. I was a freshman and on the boys freshman basketball team. Our coach was the girls assistant coach, so they would use us to practice plays and scrimmage against. Our freshman team didn't win a game all season, but we were undefeated in practice, lol.

Note that Bobby Riggs was 55 when he played and narrowly lost to Billy Jean King who was 29 at the time. She won 6-4, 6-3, 6-3. If she had played against Stan Smith, Arthur Ashe, or Tom Gorman she would have gotten SMOKED. She was playing a retired dude who was 26 years older than her.

I'm sorry, that Ben Simmons picture is my favorite part of the video. I had a good laugh. Thank you.

Cooper Flagg would straight up drop 70 😂

In 1988, Olympian Florence Griffith-Joyner set a record in the Women’s 100m at 10.49, a record that has stood for 35 years. Every year since, 20 to 30+ U.S. High School boys run it faster.

[mrjosephyoung]

I was a 6th man on a D3 college team a few decades ago. Nothing special.

The girl's team had a player who was All NY State and an alternate on the Olympic team. She was a very good player and averaged nearly 20 points a game.

One evening after our practice she challenged me to a friendly one-on-one game. I confess that I played hard against her and won 11 baskets to one or two. She couldn't get off a shot and couldn't believe the difference from playing against the girls.

[jackhughes]

Something similar to this happened in the early 2000s when the USA Women’s Hockey Team played a boys high school team from a small town in northern Minnesota called Warroad and lost.

[DerkuiDerkui]

If it ever happens, the WNBA team should start with a 50 point lead to make things interesting.

[Noname-nidy]

If I recall, the tennis match between King and Riggs was not on a level playing field. I believe that Riggs only had one serve while King got two. I also think that he could only use the singles court while she used the doubles court. Not to mention that he was 55 years old. I don’t hear anyone mention these facts.

Back in the 90’s me and a few guys who played ball in high school put together a college rec league team. The D1 women’s team was playing pickup and asked us to scrimmage with them. They were really good and skilled but we still beat them 12-10, 12-9 and 12-10. They were taller too but even at 6’4” our tallest players at 6’ would out rebound them. Basketball is not a fair sport for women to compete against men. Men have too many physical advantages that skill and even height can’t overcome. I say this though, they were more skilled than us and used set plays for easy buckets. We won on fast break points just because we were faster.

I want to see WNBA all-stars v middle school boys all-stars.
