Pro women’s basketball is on the rise, and the sport’s historic growth is fueled in part by the college game’s skyrocketing popularity. The WNBA is the gold standard league in the U.S. — but there are other domestic opportunities for NCAAers to make it big.

Dreams will come true tonight at the 2024 NBA Draft and the majority of selectees will hail from the NCAA.

Much to the delight of Ariana Grande and Chaminade College Preparatory School alums everywhere, the Florida Panthers topped the Edmonton Oilers 2–1 in Monday’s Game 7 to hoist their first-ever Stanley Cup. Here’s a breakdown, by the numbers:

On Monday, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s TMRW Sports — parent company of the tech-forward TGL golf competition — announced that it’s valued at nearly $500M, impressive considering TGL hasn’t even begun play. Without any product to show yet, the valuation speaks volumes about the league’s owners and investors, as well as the booming golf leisure space.

The No. 1–seed Tennessee Volunteers etched their names into NCAA baseball history this week by defeating No. 3 Texas A&M 6–5 on Monday to clinch their first-ever MCWS championship.

It’s already been a banner year for the Las Vegas Aces, who became the first WNBA team to sell out all regular season home games last Thursday. While the mainstream media has largely focused on rookie hype, the Aces’ numbers don’t lie: Dynasties are the real money makers.

Thanks to the Edmonton Oilers’ incredible 5–1 Game 6 Saturday win over the Florida Panthers, the Stanley Cup Final is heading to the best two words in sports — Game 7 — for the first time since 2019. History will be made in tonight’s 8 p.m. ET showdown: Either the Oilers will complete one of the biggest comebacks ever or the Panthers will hoist their very first Stanley Cup. Here are two things to keep in mind before puck drop.

Flexing up to larger venues is the latest women’s sports trend that’s allowed teams and leagues to prove that fandom and demand is often limited by smaller infrastructure. Now, Olympic sports like swimming are dipping their toes in by repurposing NFL stadiums to accommodate thousands of fans.

The WNBA’s fourth annual Commissioner's Cup — an in-season battle for hardware and cold hard cash — tips off tomorrow at 8 p.m. ET, featuring two red-hot squads: the Minnesota Lynx out of the Western Conference and the host NY Liberty (the defending Cup champs) representing the Eastern Conference. Taking “can’t miss” to a whole new level.

Like many women’s sports, softball’s professional history is messy, but now, one innovative league is bringing stability to the game. Here’s everything you need to know about the top diamond destination for the NCAA’s best: Athletes Unlimited (AU).

The Men’s College World Series (MCWS) finals are all tied up after the No. 1–seed Tennessee Volunteers and the No. 3 Texas A&M Aggies each tallied a win in this weekend’s best-of-three championship series.

With the MCWS nearly done and dusted, college baseball’s best are now eyeing the July 14th MLB Draft. Though the draft includes many high school and international athletes, the NCAA is a proven training ground for tomorrow’s big-leaguers.
