FEATURE: Why 2024 Might Be the Best Year in Women’s Basketball History

[@Copterman]

Well done covering the whole year like this with clarity and class.

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Thanks for your support! It’s been a fun year!

[@williamtaylor9748]

I’m new to women’s basketball. Your channel is always informative. And I enjoy your presentation style. Your “Mama” videos are also great. I love your relationship and respect for your mama. Good job with 2024 year in highlights.

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Welcome to the W! It's great to have you here. Thank you so much for joining us in 2024 and momma will be back in 2025 for more videos!

[@KarmaIsaTSpodcast13]

2024 marked the year I became a true women’s basketball fan. It started with CC and Iowa but now I can name pretty much any WNBA player and cannot get enough of Hannah Hidalgo and the other teams crushing it in college right now. Thank you Quita for the amazing commentary and helping me learn more about this awesome sport! See you in ‘25!

[@chrisstrawn3396]

Great video! "Mick talks hoops" shouted you out as a good channel. Been watching more of your stuff. Very good content. This video was my favorite so far!

[@williamhoover3120]

Quita, you’ve done such a magnificent job and you’re so smart and so fun to watch and you have such wonderful ethics. What a gift to have someone like you to be able to watch on KZbin. Your content is truly outstanding.

[@QuitaLovesSports]

I love being able to share my passion for the game. And I really appreciate your support over the course of the year William. Here’s to a great 2025!

[@vicster8178]

Great recap, thanks Quita for a great year of your balanced and fair commentary! Loving your college bb takes this year too!

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Appreciate you! The college stuff is fun and I’ll definitely be doing more of it!

[@HAWK11828]

I agree with most of what you said about the growth of the WMBA, you fell shot on your video about who was mainly responsible for that growth. As far as statically in all categories the growth was mainly Caitlin Clark. You can look up the WMBA records for verification. If you're going to cover the whole year on the growth of the WMBA, let's give credit where credit do. We can then be as accurate as possible. I don't want to sound like I'm Caitlin Clark fan, which I am, just trying to show the views how 2024 really got startled and the impact that followed. 2025 is going to be even better than last year because of the impact it left in 2024. Now everyone can enjoy it. ‘A rising tide lifts all boats’

[@RüdigerSchwab]

Hi. Thanks for a great year. Keep up the good work. I wish you a happy new year 2025. Greets from Germany

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Thank you and happy new year!!!🎆

[@soseiqueestouaqui435]

Chicago sky is going to be amazing next season, Angel and Kamilla haven't even scratched the surface of what they can really do

[@QuitaLovesSports]

I can’t wait to watch the Sky in 2025!!!

[@starbucksgirl6715]

Kim Mulkey's outrageous outfits brought me to the women's NCAA game. That is when I saw clips of Angel and the shoe. I then started watching all of her clips. Then the ring controversy, which went to a dreadful place, blew up everyone involved (at least on my feed) I'm glad it grew the game, but I'm sad that it came with such vitriol. This rookie class was phenomenal. I hope the W learns from the highs and lows of its marketing. I can't wait for next season.

[@RebelHolloway]

enjoyed the video. ur really great at this happy new year 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Appreciate that! Thanks for watching!

[@MichaelBenjaminSquarePegDem]

Quita Loves Sports has been a 2024 bright spot. Thanks. See you in 2025!!

[@YouAREyoubeYou]

To correct you(respectfully) Caitlin and Angel were the reason for the increase- period.

[@lionelp7401]

Quita, don't sell yourself short. You have been excellent and will only get better. I have learned so much from your content shared. I appreciate you. Let's get ready for "Unrivaled" and for 2025. All the best.

[@TonyGabriel-we3mb]

I was a Caitlin Clark inspired WNBA newbie. Caitlin “showtime” was far more entertaining than the NBA. However, as a Canadian I was dismayed at how a gifted 22 year old phenom could be the brut of all of America’s divide and dysfunction. Dismayed that WNBA vets, some OGs, ESPN commentators and players could throw her so much shade. Yet CC handled all of this with grace, dignity and professionalism far beyond her years. I imagine they will still malign her for a few more years. If this continues I will leave the W, especially if they try to injure Caitlin even though I enjoy it very much. I do appreciate you very much for your level head, objectivity and love of the game.

[@petep5207]

@Swish_ICity good for you. that makes 12 people now

[@ericMT]

I know you said you started this QLS channel (it’s in the name) in March of 2023 but you started your YT channel in 2006 and have been posting about women’s basketball in one form or another for the over 17 years! You must have been just a kid back then. Your maturity and knowledge of the women’s game really shows and that’s why I’ve always said you are the #1 Chicago Sky fan in the world. I’m sorry you never got to play as a pro or division 1 NCAA player (I think) but I can tell you played at some level. Your channel deserves many more subscribers and I think it will get there organically over time. Not with clickbait headlines or controversial drama, just WBB news and opinions. You should really be hired by a WNBA team or the league but KZbin does seem to be the future vs legacy media that seems to keep getting worse every year.

[@MichaelBenjaminSquarePegDem]

Happy New Year, Quita, Mama and Pops!

[@BeautifulAfroWoman]

There is no doubt and without question that Caitlin Clark was by and far the number one story of the year and thank you Quita for mentioning this. Yes, there are other stories but Caitlin was the number one story. Other anti-Caitlin channels won't admit this but this is why you Quita are different and this is why you are one of my favorite Channels. CC was the ONLY reason I watched women's hoops for the very FIRST TIME. An incredible year because of CC in my opinion.

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Appreciate that, Caitlin was certainly a big part of the year. But what I like the most is that she was able to introduce the awesomeness of WBB to so many people that now know the names of Kelsey Mitchell, Arike, A’ja Wilson and others who have been great for forever

[@YouAREyoubeYou]

No Caitlin story without Angel Reese-keep it 💯. Her story would have been like everyone else’s had it not had AR. A logo three shooting white girl who loses twice in NCAA back to back Championships! Wow sounds like Sabrina’s story🤔-without Angel Reese. Lmbo😂😂😂😂

[@BeautifulAfroWoman]

@ I’m so glad I’m not a black woman who has to follow another black woman because she’s black. Reese was nothing until she stalked CC around the court like a jealous little maggot and all because this white girl got all the headlines and broke records. Then she blows AR away at the pro level and breaks records there too. Your incessant jealousy shows how retarded and stupid you are. Reese is nothing without CC and everyone knows it so crawl back into your lonely little cell and stfu. Winning a title didn’t do crap for AR. She’s still less popular than Trampy Reese. Got it jealous little girl? Unlike you sorry asses who hate, Caitlin I don't hate Angel. I hope she gets better and matures a little. 😂😂😭😭🤣🤣

[@pnvgordinho]

Happy new year.

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Happy new year!!

[@bwill3337]

Thank God for Tiffany Mitchell's recovery 🙏🏿🙏🏿. Hope she makes it back 100%.

[@itsaboutdebbie8479]

Love the coverage! Thanks for a great year Quita!

[@shinningserpent2]

I’m new to the WNBA with caitlin Clark coming in this year and you were my favorite content creator for the WNBA Quita. I really have enjoyed your content this year and hopefully for the new year coming up.

[@carmellabrown3335]

Thank you for the quality content. Happy New Year!!!!

[@CocoAloveBb]

Quita,, thank you for being a voice of reason, balance and grace. Thank you for uploading great contents daily, most of us look forward to see new episodes, and you deliver, we do notworry or guess what we're going to get, unbiased professional take. May the Lord bless you in abundance in 2025. New Year blessings to all APTI!!

[@shameka2300]

Angel Reese has dealt with a lot of negativity in the media this year. Just bringing her name up brings out the most weirdos. It’s crazy. But I agree it’s been an amazing year for WBB. I love to see it.

[@Willcrochet]

Thank you, Quita!! I just peeped your subscribers - so many this year!!! Congrats on an awesome year!!🎉

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Love my subs, you guys are the reason I do this! Thanks for an awesome 2024 Will!

[@plewis6787]

Yeah. The officiating in basketball across the board is 🗑. NBA, WNBA, NCAA, even high school and middle school ball. There definitely needs to be a change.

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Yea I think we need more people wanting to be a ref so you can either get rid of or retrain the bad ones

[@tomkobe2245]

Nice video Quita loved it! I’m curious are you going to do a mock draft video I would love to see your take on the top 10 picks. I value your knowledge of the game and woman’s sports I would love for you to do one if you can!

[@QuitaLovesSports]

I’m glad you liked it! There may be some mock draft content coming soon... Keep it locked on the channel next week! 😉

[@tomkobe2245]

@ 🫵🏾 thank you I will

[@mzdee2u894]

THANK YOU QUITA ...HAPPY NEW YEARS TO YOU AND MAMA

[@TUBE-BONTONSONN-sport-vt9zw]

❤😂Remember CC AKA Caitlin took the Hawkeyes to the NCAA Final Four in the same year she took the fever to the playoffs😂😂😂❤

[@JE-IC]

She took Iowa to the championship finals. Iowa beat UConn in the final four and advanced to the championship game.

[@KB_OMeara]

Thank you for getting your facts straight before posting. So many KZbin channels don’t. I’ve had to block many channels that were just too negative. A question… when can teams start talking to free agents? When can they start signing them?

[@JE-IC]

Talking to free agents starts somewhere around January 20. Signing begins February 1.

[@wandavelez4147]

Thank you for so many great information. Have a wonderful New Year. 🥳🎉

[@xxuy393]

the biggest look back on the 2024 finals was how embarassingly rigged it was it was like the kings vs lakers series but ive never seen a winner take all where a player gets smacked across the face and jj body slammed Minnesota's center and stewey take 6 steps (no travel called) then alana smith blocks it (doesnt touch steweys arm at all) then gets a foul called i feel like i deserved the championship more then ny and for people saying it was the greatest finals in wnba history i would agree if it wasnt rigged phee has a ring in my book

I must of missed it. I didn’t hear you mention South Carolina undefeated National Championship Season

[@QuitaLovesSports]

I did mention it when talking about Fulwiley. I didn’t make a section to talk about the champs Liberty and SC and decided to weave mentions of that else where in the video. The goal was to keep the video relatively short, but yes I could have spent a whole 5-7 minutes just on their amazing season from last year

[@JorgeFlores-v4i]

It was a one women glitch...😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

[@IntelligencePerferred]

The only reason why I watch your is not to have CC shoved down our throats. Not only mentioned her in the beginning but with Sheryl and the Olympics not necessary. What about mentioning the WNBPA statement and how racism/hate/vitriolic rhetoric the women had to endure? Just a suggestion, this is your show do how you see fit. Balance is needed in journalism when discussing growth.

[@JE-IC]

A lot of us are sick of the WNBPA activism. Especially since they stay silent on causes that don't fit their narrative,v such as Dearica Hamby and the Seattle Storm investigation.

[@AustinBenjamin-xu9xr]

Talked about Clark for the first nine minutes. Before even mentioning A’ja Wilson the best player in WB. Do better

[@BeautifulAfroWoman]

Aja didn't set 62 records or have an impact this year the way Caitlin did so stfu. Quita was right. You anti-Caitlin people never cease to amaze me. Quita did a great job. Caitlin dominated the year so STOP IT ALREADY with your incessant jealousy.

[@BryanDuncan-g6b]

Clark was THE story in 2024. A’ja was pretty much as usual but lost more games this season than last. Give people their real props

[@seanstroman6087]

Haterade goin crazy with you lmaooooooooo

[@QuitaLovesSports]

Dude, I talked about Caitlin first because that was the biggest story of the year and I only talked about for 2 minutes at the top, went to injuries and came back to Caitlin because of all of the Olympics chatter around her…. But yes I always strive to do better each and every video

[@BeautifulAfroWoman]

@ No need to apologize Quita. You did the right thing. Everyone and their mother knows that CC was the story of the year. Great job, Quita.
