    More than half of the WNBA is officially without a head coach. The Connecticut Sun parted ways with Stephanie White on Monday afternoon, becoming the seventh WNBA franchise with a vacancy. Front Office Sports reporter Colin Salao joins the show to discuss the reasons for the open positions and why the recent TV deal is a big part of this.

    Plus, former Knicks GM Scott Perry joins the show to discuss the latest behind the scenes in the NBA, including Bronny James going to the G League in November.
