Final: UConn 86, Gardner-Webb 46.
Huskies dominated the way they were supposed to. Now, shipping up to Boston, where things get significantly more difficult Friday night.

Kaitlyn Chen graduated from UConn in 2025 & didn’t expect to get drafted. She showed up to WNBA draft night to support her close friend & teammate Paige Bueckers. Chen was pulled from the crowd stunned when her name was called 30th overall. Still, 3rd round picks rarely make it to the opening day roster in the W. Sure enough, she was waived by the Valkyries after preseason. Chen went straight to work to make sure she was ready if she got a call. That call came a month later and she rejoined the Valkyries. In the offseason, she worked her butt off playing overseas and for Athletes Unlimited, but the Valks only signed her to a 2026 training camp contract, essentially a try out. She continued to put her head down and work. The team announced she earned a spot, and soon a key bench role. Now she’s a champion. Inspiration. #valkyries

Ernie Johnson's impact on Inside the NBA can't be overstated.
His chemistry with Charles, Shaq and Kenny is unmatched ❤️

Surgical performance by UConn against Purdue. Huskies' bench tallied 29 points. Dan Hurley's squad has played in mid-February form during three October exhibitions. Boilers have a long ways to go before Monday's opener against Gonzaga.
It will always just be Gampel to me
Major news: Gampel Pavilion is getting a new name 👀

Great breakdown of the evolution of the Air Jordan 1 in recent years.
Same Air Jordan 1. Four different builds. How many can you tell apart? 👀
The 2013/14 OG High, Remastered V1, Remastered V2 and ’85 High each represent a different approach to the silhouette.
Black Toe shows the earlier OG High build. Storm Blue represents the first remastered generation. Royal shows the V2 standard, while the Bred ’85 takes the original shape approach.
V2 brought an embossed Wings logo, a slightly wider toe box, an enlarged Swoosh ending, an updated insole, reduced polyurethane coating, a more rounded toe cap and a slightly trimmed midsole.
Those changes began with the Lost & Found Chicago in 2022. And this information comes from my visits to Jordan Brand headquarters and conversations with designers.
The details matter when you’re documenting the history of the 1. That’s why I keep sharing them, here and in my book.
Which build feels right to you?
