Description

On this episode, we welcome Phoenix Mercury head coach Nate Tibbetts!




Nate and Sue discuss the Phoenix Mercury’s Finals run this past season and how the Mercury found success by building through free agency, forming the Mercury’s Big Three (Kahleah Copper, Alyssa Thomas, Satou Sabally). They also talk through Nate’s coaching background and his transition from coaching in the NBA to WNBA, what it was like coaching Diana Turasi in her final season, and becoming the highest paid coach in the WNBA. Then, they break down the discourse around WNBA referees, as well as what Nate’s approach is to this CBA offseason. Plus, much more!
