What’s truly going on with Natasha Cloud?––WNBA Free Agency Winners & Losers | The IX Sports Podcast

Jackie Powell and Howard Megdal are back for a jammed packed episode where they first clarify some mis- and disinformation that has been spreading around about the reasons why Natasha Cloud isn’t yet signed by a WNBA team as training camps have opened and preseason games are starting on Saturday. Later on, Howard and Jackie give some honorable mentions and then winners and losers coming out of the most jam packed WNBA free agency in recent memory. Then Howard asks Jackie what she’s learned this past week at New York Liberty training camp especially with a mostly brand new coaching staff. She shares her observations, including some thoughts from Rebecca Allen. And finally, Howard has some parting thoughts about the latest news to come out of basketball startup Project B.
