In this week's edition of "We Got Rizz," Connecticut Sun President Jen Rizzotti delved into the recent headline-making incident involving Sun star Alyssa Thomas. The interview provided insights into Thomas' character and playing style, shedding light on the controversial hard foul that led to her ejection during a game against the Chicago Sky.
Rizzotti, a former UConn and WNBA player, emphasized the significance of women's basketball being in the spotlight and defended Thomas, portraying her as a tough competitor rather than a dirty player. She explained that the hard foul was a result of instinctive reaction to physical play, not intentional malice.
Things got super fun during the interview when the crew got all creative coming up with new tag lines inspired by the recent hard foul for the Connecticut Sun. Christine threw out one idea, "Connecticut Sun: Drippin' with style and fouls" to which Jen asked how many brain cells were sacrificed to make that epic tagline! Check out the full interview below where Jen delves into what to expect this Friday as the number one ranked Connecticut Sun (6-0) take on the number 4 ranked Dallas Wings (3-2) at Mohegan Sun Arena.
