SUE BIRD: THANK YOU, SUE

Sue Bird walks away from the game as the assist queen, a five-time gold medalist and a four-time WNBA champion. She has given so much to UConn and the city of Seattle, and fans everywhere thank her for the inspiration she has provided. Buy one or both of these awesome T-shirts today!

RHYNE HOWARD: RHYNE OF THE YEAR

Rhyne Howard ran away with Rookie of the Year voting: 53 out of 56 votes after averaging 16.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.8 blocks with 85 threes made!

Celebrate her amazing achievement with this new T-shirt:

SUE BIRD: FINALLY FLY

Sue Bird began her final playoff game with a hot start in Game 1 of a first-round series against the Washington Mystics. She followed that up with 18 points on 4-of-6 shooting from three and 10 assists in Game 2. Final Flight is well underway and her Seattle Storm are advancing to the semifinals!

KELSEY PLUM: PLUM DAWG

Celebrate Kelsey Plum’s All-WNBA caliber season. Her Las Vegas Aces are the #1 seed in the WNBA Playoffs!

ALLIE QUIGLEY: 3-POINT QUEEN

Allie Quigley recently won her fourth WNBA 3-point shooting contest and did so in her hometown of Chicago.

SYLVIA FOWLES: LEGEND

Sylvia Fowles was in the MVP conversation in 2021 at age 35. She then dunked in her final All-Star Game at age 36! Her ability to be one of the best players in the league beyond when people thought she might start to fall off has strengthened her case as the best center the game has ever seen. And we still can’t get over that dunk.

SABRINA IONESCU: TRIPLE-DOUBLE QUEEN

Sabrina Ionescu has tied Candace Parker for most career WNBA triple-doubles with three. She did it with a 31-point triple-double — the highest score ever — and she has her entire career ahead of her to add more. She had 26 in college; how many does she get in the WNBA?

3-POINT SHOOTING COMPETITION 2022

Allie Quigley, Jewell Loyd, Rhyne Howard, Kelsey Plum, Ariel Atkins and Arike Ogunbowale! Pick your favorite 3-point shooter and buy their shirt!

TEAM STEWART VS TEAM WILSON 2022

Amidst the skyscrapers of Chicago, the 2022 WNBA All-Star Game will take place on Sunday. BreakingT has a shirt that you can wear on Sunday and long after to remember the moment. It has an outline of the Willis Tower with Sylvia Fowles and Sue Bird’s faces on top and A’ja Wilson and Breanna Stewart’s faces on the bottom. Fowles and Bird are legends who will retire at the end of this season, while Wilson and Stewart were the two biggest fans voted into the All-Star Game. The left side of the tower (with Fowles and Wilson) represents Team Wilson and the right side (with Bird and Stewart) represents Team Stewart. Below the tower and the faces of the four team captains is a list of the remaining starters and a list of the reserves.

COURTNEY VANDERSLOOT: QUEEN OF THE FOURTH

Courtney Vandersloot is primarily known for her distribution. So far in her career, she has dished out assists at a higher rate (6.7 per game) than anyone else in WNBA history, and she has led the league in assists per game. game six times, including the last five consecutive seasons. However, she is also a good 3-point shooter, having knocked down 317 triples in her career at a 35 percent clip. This year, she’s shooting particularly well from beyond the arc (on pace to break the coveted 40 percent mark for the first time). That includes hitting the game-winning three with one second left for her Chicago Sky vs. New York Liberty on June 12. There was pressure on it because she had to make it with her team down by one. She then broke an 85-85 tie with a three at the buzzer to take down the Minnesota Lynx last Sunday. In honor of these two clutch shots, breakingT has created a new shirt for Sloot that you should definitely check out.

SABRINA IONESCU: NIGHT NIGHT

Sabrina Ionescu was a hyped-up No. 1 WNBA draft pick, really the most recent one, as Rhyne Howard (2022) and Charli Collier (2021) didn’t get as much hype. In college, Ionescu tied the record for triple-doubles by a male or female NCAA player with 26, became the first player to record 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds and 1,000 assists in a career, and won national player of the year honors as a senior and led Oregon Ducks to three Elite Eights, one Final Four and a No. 2 final seed in 2020 when the NCAA Tournament was canceled. In the WNBA, 2022 has been her first superstar season, and she was recently named an All-Star and an All-Star starter for the first time. Ionescu lives for the big shots late game, and with her incredible range, she can really deliver some heartbreaking daggers. When she does, she says “night, night” to her opponents, just like Steph Curry does.

CANDACE PARKER: TRIPLE DOUBLE QUEEN

Candace Parker is 6-foot-4, can score in a variety of ways, including the 3-point shot, and is a phenomenal distributing point forward. So she can rack up points and assists, and with her height and the lesson from her college coach Pat Summitt that “Offense sells tickets, defense wins games, and rebounding wins championships,” she can rack up the boards. When Swish Apple measured the highest monster stat scores of players still active in the 2021 season, it was calculated that Parker had the highest score due to her ability to excel in all three categories:

Parker averaged 6.3 assists over 16 games in 2015. That’s what put her over the top on this list. Always known for his versatility, the two-time MVP has also averaged over 10 rebounds twice and over 20 points once.

With two triple-doubles this season, Parker has taken over first place in league history in career triple-doubles with three. She also has seven games with 10-plus points, 10-plus rebounds and nine assists.

BIG TEAMS

Shirts featuring drawings of each member of the starting five for three of the most successful teams in recent years are available. There are the Seattle Storm, who have won two of the last four championships, the Washington Mystics, who won in 2019, and the Las Vegas Aces, who have been in the hunt for a title and are the best team in the league right now.

SUPERSTARS

Jonquel Jones is the reigning MVP and can do it all on offense at 6-foot-6. Arike Ogunbowale is the most electrifying player in the WNBA, and you can bet she’ll be in the running for the scoring title year after year. Elena Delle Donne has put together an All-Star caliber season in her return from back issues. Candace Parker is a two-time champion who is still playing at an All-Star level late in her career. A’ja Wilson has looked like the best player in the world at times this year and is a double-double machine. Skylar Diggins-Smith is becoming just as big a superstar as her “Three to See” teammates Delle Donne and Brittney Griner and is the best point guard in the game right now. Sue Bird is simply a legend and is chasing her fifth championship.

If you’re a fan of one of these superstars, get your T-shirt now! JJ, ARIKE, EDD, CP, A’JA, SKY and SB10 shirts are all available!

FRESH FACES

Two of the teams that did the best last season were the Phoenix Mercury and the Chicago Sky. Mercury added to their Big Three by adding two more superstars in Tina Charles and Diamond DeShields. The Sky brought in two Belgian phenoms in Emma Meesseman, a star and former Finals MVP, and Julie Allemand, an impressive young player with star potential. Watch them put it all on the line for their new team while wearing breakingT’s new Fresh Faces T-shirts!

ATLANTA: ERICA WHEELER NEW ATTITUDE

Erica Wheeler was Ms. Clutch for the Los Angeles Sparks last year and was in the All-Star conversation. Now, the Miami native is back in the Southeast, repeating the Atlanta dream. Buy her new jersey to celebrate her affiliation with a new team.

TREAT WBB AS A SPORT

The South Carolina Gamecocks are national champions, and their head coach, Dawn Staley, is famous for wearing gear with “WBB” written on it. In her latest quote, Staley has called for women’s basketball to be treated as a sport. Celebrate her, her team’s championship and her message with this jersey.

The collection from 1972

BreakingT has come up with six new designs, two of which are available in both short and long sleeves. They are “put women’s sports on TV”, “when women win, we all win”, “invest in women’s sports”, “the revolution begins”, “women belong in sports” and “know your worth.” Colors are a creative mix of shades of blue and orange.

Celebrate Title IX as the NCAA Tournament approaches!

SUE BIRD IS BACK

The last time Sue Bird played in a WNBA game, she ended up doing a postgame interview and swapping jerseys with Diana Taurasi after her Seattle Storm lost to Taurasi’s Phoenix Mercury in the second round of the playoffs.

We thought that game at Angel of the Wings Arena in Everett, Wash., might be her last in a league she’s been one of the faces of.

On Friday, however, it was revealed that Bird is returns to the WNBA and the Storm in the 2022 season, which will be her 19. She is the all-time WNBA leader in assists and games and has a shot by reaching 1,000 made 3-pointers. She and the Storm have won two championships in the past four seasons and will look to be contenders again this year.

Celebrate the feel-good news that an absolute fan favorite is back!
