WNBA ALL-STAR Weekend Taught Me a Very Important Lesson | Quita in the Morning

In this powerful episode of Quita in the Morning, Quita reflects on her experience at WNBA All-Star Weekend and the unexpected lessons it taught her — not just about basketball, but about visibility, recognition, and the dynamics of women’s sports media. She discusses what it felt like to be among WNBA players, reporters, and influencers, and how the event illuminated the often-unspoken hierarchies that exist within the league and its coverage. Quita also breaks down the on-court action — from Jewell Loyd's MVP performance to Dearica Hamby’s snub and Caitlin Clark’s role in the spotlight — while weaving in commentary on media bias, influencer culture, and why popularity often outweighs performance. This episode is equal parts All-Star recap and cultural critique, reminding listeners why women's sports deserve deeper, more honest conversations.
