ARTICLES WRITTEN BY LESLIE
Leslie has written many articles but this is her more recent set of work. She was delighted to finally get the opportunity to cover the WNBA as she has found there is not enough content out there. The lack of articles written about the league and her favorite team, the Sparks, finally allowed her to make that move.
TE’A COOPER’S HEARTFELT GESTURE AHEAD OF UPCOMING WNBA SEASON
December 2021
Te’a Cooper is not your average WNBA player. Known to the sports world as the newbie guard for the Los Angeles Sparks, to others she is a celebrity on social media, amassing 1.4 million followers on Instagram and 1.5 million on TikTok. Her basketball skills, personality, dance moves, and sense of humor drive her popularity. Now she’s adding philanthropy to that list by partnering with Dick’s Sporting Goods Foundation to provide the gift of sport and surprise kids with the Dick’s Giving Truck.
Cooper recognizes that giving back to the community, especially the city of Los Angeles, is something very significant to her:
"L.A. has a special place in my heart being that it’s the place where my dreams came true,” said the Sparks guard. “Giving back to the community and watching kids light up, especially with the time of year [and] with everything that everyone’s been going through… it’s really special and sentimental. I am super excited to be part of it.”

INTERVIEWS
One-on-One Interview with Nick Lagios
Leslie interviewed Nick Lagios, the new General Manager for Los Capitanes. Los Capitanes became the first Mexican team to join the G-League and now it's up to Nick to continue to keep the NBA's reputation internationally. Watch as Nick spoke about his journey to gain the new role, his expectations for the season, and what he's most excited about in this new country.
The interview was done via Zoom in mid-May 2021, as the country was still dealing with the repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Vergüenza en Los Ángeles, pierden los Lakers 115-105 contra los Suns de Phoenix
LeBron James termino con 25 puntos y 5 asistencias. Anthony Davis con 22 puntos y 14 rebotes. Russell Westbrook con 15 puntos y 11 rebotes. Pero un horrible tercer parcial le dio la ganada a los Suns de Phoenix.
También los nervios estaban a flor de piel: Con Dwight Howard y Anthony Davis dándose unos empujones en el banquillo. La frustración creciendo con los árbitros y tensiones super altas mientras Los Lakers jugaban contra el equipo que los elimino de los playoffs la temporada pasada.
El proximo juego de Los Lakers es el domingo en casa contra los Grizzlies de Memphis.
