From The GIST Team

Good morning!

May you approach the new week with the patience of this female pro golfer receiving some unsolicited advice on the driving range. Swinging right past the mansplainers and into today’s news.

Quote of The Day
Quote The crowd was just super crazy. So that’s what made it seem more of like, ‘Oh wow, like I just won state.’
Wrestler Audrey Jimenez celebrates after a win.

— High school wrestler Audrey Jimenez, after her history-making Arizona state wrestling title, the state’s first won by a female competing against male opponents. (P)in it to win it.

The GIST: With just over three weeks until March Madness, two of the biggest names in women’s college hoops are crushing records and commanding our attention day in and day out. You know this…ballin’.

Senior Caitlin Clark, No. 4 Iowa: Already the owner of the all-time NCAA women’s scoring record, Clark — who’s averaging over 32 points per game — is now just 51 points away from breaking former LSU and NBA star Pete Maravich’s all-time NCAA record of 3,667 with two regular-season games to go.

Freshman JuJu Watkins, No. 7 USC: The hometown hero is catapulting USC women’s basketball back into the national conversation in her first collegiate season. Watkins notched her 12th 30-point game of the season yesterday, making her the highest-scoring Trojan freshman ever. Just the beginning.

Buzzer Beaters

World No. 43 and Thailand’s own Patty Tavatanakit sunk a birdie on the final hole to win the Honda LPGA Thailand yesterday, her first Tour win since 2021. Meanwhile, world No. 1 American Lilia Vu finished tied for seventh.

😲 The Oklahoma City Thunder's Chet Holmgren became the first NBA rookie to ever post 150+ blocks, 150+ assists, and 100+ three-pointers in a single season during yesterday’s win over the Houston Rockets. Jaw-dropping.

🏀 Atlanta Hawks All-Star Trae Young needs hand surgery on a torn ligament and will miss at least the next four weeks as his team clings to an NBA play-in spot.

Former MVP outfielder Cody Bellinger re-signed with the Chicago Cubs on a three-year, $80M deal yesterday, potentially opening up the previously stagnant MLB free agent market. Watch this space.

👀 The Athletes Unlimited Basketball Week 1 draft will be held tonight ahead of Thursday’s season-opening tip-off, which will mark the innovative league’s third annual campaign. Hoop, there it is.

🏀 NBA: Philadelphia 76ers vs. Boston Celtics — Tomorrow at 7:30 p.m. ET — TNT

  • The fifth-in-the-Eastern-Conference Sixers are trying to find their groove in the absence of injured superstar Joel Embiid, but it’ll be quite the challenge against the league-leading Celtics, who are riding an eight-game win streak.

🏒 PWHL: Toronto vs. Minnesota — Tomorrow at 8 p.m. ET — YouTube

  • A battle between the No. 3 and No. 2 teams, these foes are about as evenly matched as they come. Puck yeah.

Crocs seem to be making a comeback on and off the court, so let’s settle this debate: Are Crocs in or out? Put it in sport mode and chime in below.
