Hello, world. It’s me, Candace Parker.
Oh, she didn’t do a whole lot in her WNBA debut… she only scored more than any other league player’s debut ever.
- Candace Parker scored 34 in her debut with the Los Angeles Sparks, a 99-94 victory over the defending champion Phoenix Mercury on their home floor. Cappie Pondexter did everything to keep the Mercury in the game, scoring 32 even after arriving in the country the day before.
- Get ready for a lot of scores like the 100-67 loss, Atlanta Dream fans. The Connecticut Sun used a 32-8 run in the first quarter to lead by 17 at the start of the second quarter and didn’t look back.
- I don’t know if this means the Houston Comets are worse than we thought they were or the Detroit Shock are better, but the depleted Shock did just that as they defeated the Comets 85-66. Deanna Nolan couldn’t play much on her bad ankle, but Alexis Hornbuckle had a great WNBA debut, scoring 8 and getting 7 steals.
- The All-Star squad Brian Agler has assembled for his Seattle Storm used a 25-9 run in the third quarter to comeback from a halftime deficit and defeat the Chicago Sky 66-61. 2007 WNBA MVP Lauren Jackson led the team with 14 points and Sylvia Fowles had a rough debut for the Sky, scoring 6 and bringing down 7 rebounds.
- Katie Douglas returned to Indiana glory, scoring 24 points in her Indiana Fever debut and leading her team to a 64-53 victory over the Washington Mystics.
- Sophia Young’s 22 points weren’t enough as the San Antonio Silver Stars fell to the Sacramento Monarchs 73-64.
Forgot to show some love to Newscom for the photo of CP.

Being from Knoxville Tennessee and watching Candace play for the Lady Vols was some the most exciting basketball I’ve have ever watched. She was unbelievable in college, and she will be remarkable in the WNBA. She is the equivalent to Micheal Jordan, female version. Ya’ll just ain’t seen nothing yet, she is simply the very best there is, and will do down in the history books as the best there ever was, male or female, just like Pat Summitt. I am so proud to say that Candace Parker played at the University of Tennessee and I got to be a part of the live action for every home game. Go Candace.. ROCK the basketball world!!!
