#Sinners was such a rich film in so many ways. It sticks with you hours after leaving the theater. This is a must-buy, and I mean a physical copy, not just the stream. Sinners is the best Michael B. Jordan ACT I have ever seen. I am still thinking about all of what I saw.
“Sinners,” the horror movie from the director Ryan Coogler, is on a pace to collect at least $330 million in worldwide ticket sales, a level reached by few original films in the genre.

Not to concerned about the Liberty preseason loss. Liberty still have cuts to make so played deep in our bench. Fiebich (overseas) and Stewie didn't play. We move. Loved the energy from Marine Johannes and Jaylyn Sherrod! Nice seeing Natasha Cloud on the floor. #NYLiberty🗽 #WNBA

The #WNBA Draft is next Monday. It's so crazy how fast rookies have to adjust in the W and the expectations placed on them. We know Paige is going to Dallas, but some rookies will have to fight to make a roster spot/ The W is right around the corner.

I read Anywhere To Run by Wanda M. Morris in one day. I love historical fiction and this book was quite different than the usual historical fiction I read. The characters were sisters set in Mississippi during Jim Crow, 1960’s. #BookSky

I sat down with Napheesa Collier this week to talk about #Unrivaled’s first season.
“This is not a charity. It's not just, ‘Go women's sports.’ There's money to be made in this too, and I think that's honestly the most rewarding thing.”
More from Phee:

Nets coach Jordi Fernandez on Cam Thomas and the future: “The way we played through him, I thought the team was playing at a high level.”
“We’ll go through the summer together. We have a plan in place. The plan is going to be a team that wins consistently, and we’re going to get there together.”
