“”I love everything about her…She reminds me of myself, hoop-wise and on a personal level too.”

In a league where competition is fierce and rivalries run deep, moments of genuine admiration between players are rare—and all the more powerful when they happen. This week, WNBA fans were treated to one such moment when a veteran star opened up about her admiration for a rising rookie, declaring, “I love everything about her…She reminds me of myself, hoop-wise and on a personal level too.”

A Connection Beyond Basketball

The heartfelt statement came during a post-game interview, after a closely contested matchup that saw both players putting on a show for the fans. The veteran, known for her relentless work ethic and leadership, didn’t hesitate to praise her younger counterpart.

“She’s got that fire,” she said. “The way she approaches the game, the way she carries herself—I see a lot of myself in her. It’s not just about the points or the highlights. It’s about the passion, the drive, and the way she lifts up her teammates.”

Mutual Respect

The rookie, whose dazzling play and fearless attitude have made her an instant fan favorite, was quick to return the compliment. “To have someone I’ve looked up to say that about me? That means everything. I grew up watching her, trying to model my game after hers. To know she sees something of herself in me—it’s surreal.”

More Than Just a Game

Beyond their on-court similarities, both athletes have become known for their community work and outspoken advocacy. Whether it’s hosting youth clinics, speaking out on social issues, or simply being role models for the next generation, their impact reaches far beyond the hardwood.
