There’s a lot of stigmas and stereotypes that we navigate on the daily, to the point where I try my best to really tune them all out. But everyone thinks that we don’t make any money at all, people don’t know that we play 12 months out of the season, and that watching women’s basketball is not exciting. Those are all fallacies and… I think are quickly becoming dispelled.

Additional quotes by Nneka Ogwumike

We have the want to, we have the determination and the belief but we need to turn all of that into real confidence and just having a little bit of swagger. I think that’s what we saw (Tuesday night) and we want to definitely build off of how we feel. For me, I play for intangibles so you can run as many plays as you want to, you can throw all these different schemes out but it’s not going to matter if you’re not locked in with the people that are out there.

I didn’t anticipate it, to be honest. I ended up doing more than I thought I was going to do this season. It’s still a blessing and I’m very grateful to know that I’m capable. To be able to come out, both on the All-Defensive and WNBA teams, it showed that I’m doing something right. I want to make sure that I’m as much of an asset on the court for my teammates.
