The fact that we would of been seeing gigi in a couple years too is just sad man... She could of been a real marketing sensation for female basketball and wnba itself...

@@KDotO79 Yes, that's right. I was looking forward to watching more of her basketball highlights.

No way YOU FORGOT JADA WILLIAMS

@@jacquentatodd6410 Jada's definitely very talented, but just not as fun to watch in my opinion. My favorite basketball players whether it's nba players, high school girl basketball players or even those I personally know are based off how spectacular they play basketball, not so much if they're the best player on the court.

What an ignorant statement! To each his own, but the WNBA is not being marketed as well as it should. Hs ball is great, but there's far more talent in college, to say nothing of the WNBA/ International ball. How dare you!

I agree...the game is gettin stronger

The Wnba was banging when it first started. Somebody hated and they stopped showing games on tv like that. Get the best 12 hs girls and the 12 worst Wnba women and the wnba will blow em out by 100.

My initial stance has not changed. I love all women's basketball, from little league up to the wnba. I took issue with you saying that high school players have more skill amd swag than wnba players. Again, that is very ill informed. I have no problem with you preferring hs ball to wnba. But there have been only a handful of girls who could have skipped college and went straight to the wnba: players like Breanna Stewart, Maya Moore, Griner. Candace Parker and a couple others come to mind. Talented hs players are playing against inferior competition and they don't get challenged until they play in national tournaments, camps, and/ or against boys. That's fine. I'm not going to trash anyone. We don't have to trash the wnba in order to give props to high school players. The game is growing worldwide, and the wnba is still in its infancy. Go back and see how far the NBA grew after its first 20 years. It certainly wasn't what it is today. But it's absolutely true that WNBA teams would crush college teams and it would be ridiculous to watch a wnba team kill a high school team. Again, I'm very impressed with the talent of the future but that's exactly what they are, the future.

Yeap scary

What. The F. Have her parents been feeding her!

@@tonychopper9142 😂 i want the same xD ..well too late i guess^^

that’s Yao Ming’s first born with his side chic.

Naw sounds like a spectacle and knee injuries honestly

STEM schools. Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. So, you play bb for 10 years, and then what? You coach, maybe. But some people are drawn to greater and more rewarding challenges in life. How do you build a bridge. How do I make a missile more powerful. What diseases do I want to conquer. Do I want to be a trial lawyer, or be the head of Human Resources at a major firm. Of course, I'm thrilled about NIL, and it will be interesting to see just how much money student / athletes can make.

And an Olympic gold medal, as well.

Yep!! PAIGE🔥🔥

She nice but not even top 1000 best basketball player on the planet rn stop it

You’ve seen NBA players before? Yeah. So unfortunately she’s not the best basketball player you’ve ever seen. But she is very fun to watch.

Lmfao

Yet social media finger boys talk about zipping these girls. Yeah, right.

The WNBA would benefit if fans actually attended any of their games.

@@stormyweather9917 but how would that be if all the good players aren’t getting recognized

Yall need to stop disrespecting the Wnba. They only got a hand full of teams and with people like Sue Bird still playing going on 50. It's harder to make the Wnba in comparison to the nba. Put some respect on the wnba.

Respect

Different places, different paces.

Hahahahahah, whom are you trying to convince? Its a blasphemy you are saying sir.

0.0000001% of the population agrees with you

@@tyroneharp9658 well said

@@polyshoxxs400 I would love to see an NBA game played by the rules but it's not ever going to happen. No traveling, turning the ball over or carrying it. No hooking, holding or checking on defense. The NBA resembles a hybrid football game/wrestling match.

@@polyshoxxs400 I agree. I don't much care for the WNBA either. They're trying to emulate the NBA game.

Not just watch but imagine the marketing and exposure for girls basketball... Could of been a lebron circa 2002/03 for female basketball... If she became who many believe she could of been a big deal for wnba and its growth...even genie buss was talking about it how she would of been a game changer for women's basketball and its popularity... Life sucks sometimes.. way to young.

It’s just sad that when she was alive, dudes were asking Kobe why he couldn’t have a son as an insult to her and he noticed it.

Thanks for watching 💯

@@CourtsideFilms anytime im subbed!

Sorry that men can dunk. Some of these highlights are good but they playing against scrubs people that have no lateral quickness, athleticism or skill to be honest even the top women's players in the country shoot like 5th graders

@@lukewheaton2692 hi and thanks for your comments. Please don’t get me wrong, I wish I could dunk it would be a real amazing thing to do. I was making the observation that hanging from the basket I don’t seem to like for some reason. I’ve always marvelled at American basketball and would have loved to see a pro game with the men, they are such incredible athletes! You clearly know more about the playing game then me, how to play that is. I played the game years ago but not to any high standard, I like the game a lot. When I began to check it out again recently on UKposts and so on, I was so amazed and impressed at the women’s game, and of all ages / sexes abilities. I found the video above to be really enjoyable. I’m a man by the way. Anyway thanks for your input about the game.

@@betweenevenings yeah they hang from the rims but alot if time it's for their own protection... There is a rule for it to detere them from show boating but again hanging on the rim can save a player from a much worst outcome.

@@KDotO79 thankyou a lot for the insight: this makes sense to me. It’s so competitive in the US at it seems any level. I played in British 3rd division way back In the 70’s which is not high standard at all. My coach played for English 1st division top club and he was really good playmaker. I saw a player deliberately injure him using crafty trick so can imagine what it’s like with such huge athletes all determined to win with massive financial gains to be made. I’d love to sit in front row at an US top game, here I could see the amazing presence of the game at that level. Thanks kindly it’s put the ring hanging in a better perspective.

Probably not

the wnba is a new league, remember when the NBA started off it was a bunch of plumbers and librarians playing? now there’s 13 year old guys like mikey williams was that are freaks of nature. I feel like in 20 years the wnba and female basketball players in general will completely evolve too

She's really great one of the top female players there is, but it's a whole entire different league when you start comparing her being able to play with the top men players.

The mens game is a different game because.. it’s a different gender, lol. There are MAJOR biological differences that make men naturally more athletic than women. It’s not like the women aren’t trying hard enough or are “behind”. I believe it will always be a different game. 🙂

@@samantham.9096 I agree but that last statement is just to clarify for some women out there thinking that there is no difference

She did right infront of me

we def evolving lmao

I agree. Women don’t get that tall unless born with it. It’d be heart pumping to see women doing hard dunks no matter the height.

No keep the rim at 10' that's why l like watching women college and wnba because l like watching the fundamentals of the game instead of all that above the rim play.
