Similar to how their brotherly counterparts in the NBA seem to be, the San Antonio Silver Stars don’t have a bunch of stars, but they have a set of complimentary players to build around Sophia Young and Becky Hammon. Q from the outstanding blog “Rethinking Basketball” did an in-depth analysis of the Stars following their […]
It’s almost over, and while the Becky Hammon saga continues, so does the hypocrisy.
Over the past few weeks, another basketballer has made it known he would be playing for another team rather than his home country. Chris Kaman of the NBA’s Los Angeles Clippers received his German citizenship and will play for their team in […]
Bob Corwin of Scout.com revisited his Western Conference predictions this week, and with a tip of the hat to the Women’s Hoops Blog, I present a bit of those recaps to you.
Update: (Candace) Parker continues to live up to the hype, drawing larger than average crowds for away games. However, […]
While Becky Hammon’s scoring numbers may have dropped off so far this season, her value to the San Antonio Silver Stars is as high as ever, writes Terrence Thomas of the San Antonio Express-News. (Props to the Silver Stars Nation for the find.)
Yet despite being double- and triple-teamed […]
A W-L record of 5-4 is probably not where many (including writer man here) expected the San Antonio Silver Stars to be at right now, but alas, here we are with the Stars fighting for the fourth spot in the West. As Terrance Thomas of the San Antonio Express-News puts it, though, it’s all built […]

Set your DVRs for Sunday morning as ESPN’s “Outside The Lines” will profile Becky Hammon’s decision to play for Russia in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China.
Preview video clip here.
Here’s the full story from ESPN.com: Preview below.
Even though Hammon is not of Russian descent, speaks no Russian and is not a full-time resident, she […]
First off, I was all set to go watch the SA-Seattle game before something important with my family took me away very early Saturday morning, which is why I haven’t been able to update for a bit, but anyway…
Silver Stars weather the Storm with a pair of 20-point nights from Sophia Young and Becky Hammon […]
(First off, the headline choice is shamelessly ripped from my old 4th Floor buddies at the San Antonio Express-News).
Anyway, the San Antonio Silver Stars signed Edwige Lawson-Wade, the starting point guard from the French national team, to a free-agent deal today. Lawson has been playing in Europe and […]
