Super fun article by @thefalkon.bsky.social about transition offense and defense in the WNBA. We had a great conversation of how our staff at Indy defined transition when I was there which is awesome to see incorporated. Dan’s been publishing great WNBA analysis; give it a look!

I've been working on a form of this project since I was a kid, so really excited to share this article about Scenario Trees. Given a schedule input, scenario trees visualize all possible outcomes. Going to be awesome during conference tournaments! billyfryer.com/projects/sce...

Similar note: Great company culture and people as well. They were so great to me as an intern and have been since - checking in on me periodically and responding to my messages about WBB. Thanks so much y’all

Breaking from @basketball-reference.com: Women’s College Basketball Scores and stats back to 1982!!!!!!! They now have almost complete coverage of NCAA WBB. Crazy to think just 3 summers ago I interned there and tried to find records and conferences. So proud and thankful

Now that the @wnba.com Finals are over, it’s time for the @portlandfire.bsky.social and @tempobasketball.bsky.social Expansion! With a new CBA, massive free agency, and 2 teams coming into the league the Expansion Draft Rules are likely different. My thoughts below: billyfryer.com/wbb/expansio...

Update for @sickoscommittee.org: US Fistball Championship 2025 was an absolute blast! The South Jersey Spicy Salmon men’s team took a 3-1 victory over the Wisconsin Fistball Association. For the women, the South Jersey battled back from down 2-1 to win in 5 vs SSC. Need a Sickos Team in 2026!

Turns out Home Court Advantage matters in the WNBA Playoffs. I love the 1-1-1 format. #NowYouKnow #TakeCover

Current Rating of Best Finishes in TWG 2025: 1) W Fistball Brazil coming back from down 0-2 in sets to win the Gold 2) Canada Football beating Japan in the Semis 3) Hungary Buzzer Beater in Poland in Beach Korfball 4) Czechia’s Golden Goal vs Germany to send them to the Semis in Indoor Korfball

Billy Fryer @billyfryer42.bsky.social · 16/08/2025

The 2 QB system that Canada just pulled out was 🔥.

020

Billy Fryer @billyfryer42.bsky.social · 14/08/2025

Correct, according to the rules no blocking. Center is an eligible receiver though

Billy Fryer @billyfryer42.bsky.social · 13/08/2025

What the (Gaby) Heck?!? Brazil utterly dominates Germany in The World Games Men’s Fistball gold medal match. Absolute must watch @sickoscommittee.org

As we saw on stream, didn’t happen but would love to see Canada Fistball become a thing!

Agreed not on IFF, but on ISBC. Reminds me of the World Police and Fire Games this summer (in Birmingham AL) when they ran out of medals 😂 www.instagram.com/p/DLvToM_N9m...

IFF tries so hard with their streams and always gets screwed over during The World Games. This was an interaction I had with them on YouTube back in 2022

120

Billy Fryer @billyfryer42.bsky.social · 12/08/2025

Probably an issue of ISBC not having enough cameras for all the events. Other sports have had games on secondary fields not broadcasted too. If you try to look back much past Birmingham, you struggle to find footage of anything TWG related unless it’s on a sport’s federation page (like IFF or IFA)

Phenomenal. I was a volunteer in Birmingham and met one of the Suriname korfball guys after closing ceremony. Really wished I had photo evidence but here’s a pic of me with the mascots during the ceremony.

Not so fast! Netherlands Korfball’s only loss came April 6, 1991 to Belgium in the World Championships. Every other international appearance has been a W (close call in 1978 when they went to golden goal but still won) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netherl... www.theworldgames.org/news/Beating...

Obviously changes nightly but as of the All Star Break, Angel would be tied 2nd with Kiki Iriafen and behind Azurá Stevens if you only counted Reese’s Defensive rebounds

Billy Fryer @billyfryer42.bsky.social · 17/07/2025

While doing background research on this, I found an article by @josiahcohen.bsky.social and thought is was a hreat read as well so wanted to share his work! riseofthevalkyries.substack.com/p/is-angel-ree…

New WNBA Article for All Star Break taking a look a mebounds, rebounding your own misses. billyfryer.com/wbb/me-bounds/ Article takes a look at historic mebound trends then focuses in on Angel Reese and how she fares as an all-time mebounder!

No way we’re starting on time next year. Seems like this gives Portland an opportunity to catch up to where they need to be

Billy Fryer @billyfryer42.bsky.social · 30/06/2025

Gotcha, so the only time where that “must own 1 pick within the next 3 years” comes into play is negotiating period to draft?

100

Billy Fryer @billyfryer42.bsky.social · 30/06/2025

2028 picks are tradable now since the 2025 draft has concluded right? 2028 picks are missing from the Salary Cap pages on HHS under Upcoming Draft Picks so wanted to double check.

100

Billy Fryer @billyfryer42.bsky.social · 26/06/2025

Yeah, that’s much harder. Only people that comes to my mind that that will likely apply to are HVL with TCU and Amoore with Kentucky who both set tons of single season school records. But not enough time has passed to tell if they’ll be forever loved by the fanbases or if it’s short term

000

Billy Fryer @billyfryer42.bsky.social · 26/06/2025

I think there’s a big difference between those two actually. Chen is beloved by Princeton as she helped them win the Ivy and a first round matchup in 2023. As a grad transfer, specifically an Ivy league one, she had to leave. Kiki on the other hand was a normal portal transfer. Depends on scenario 🤷‍♂️
