Okay, let’s see if I got this right. So, there I was, right? Lost in my own thoughts at the Michelob ULTRA Arena, watching the Sparks trying to outmaneuver the Aces. Oh, and it was May 30, 2025, in the ever-flashy Las Vegas. Why do I remember the date so well? No clue. Just stuck with me like, I dunno, gum on a shoe.
Anyway—and don’t ask me why I care about jersey numbers—but A’ja Wilson had this beast mode moment. She’s number 22, if you care about that kinda thing. She was going at it with Emma Cannon from the Sparks. Such a mismatched dance, like jazz and hip-hop trying to find some rhythm in the second quarter.
And the noise! The sneakers on the court sounded like… um, have you ever heard wet cardboard slipping around? Yeah, odd but sort of true. I got caught up in it. Maybe it was the thrill of the game. Or maybe I was just tired—who knows?
Oh, and about the photo credit thing, some Ethan Miller guy snapped that picture. He works for Getty Images. Their rules and stuff, honestly, I’ve skimmed it all before but, like, who actually reads those agreements? We just roll with it.
So, there you have it, my tangled version of a basketball evening—and now I want ice cream for no reason at all.
