Summer Basketball

At three different times over the summer, regular contributor Baranduin got to summer basketball games.

On 14 May, Baranduin attended a Storm at NY Liberty game at Madison Square Garden. Click through to the smugmug gallery for a few pictures of Nicole Powell and a lot of pro action like this:

In July she got up to the dim confines of Kezar for a pro-am game and put some pictures in this gallery. Despite the dismal lighting conditions she managed some good action shots like these:

There are some Stanford players in there somewhere, too.

On 3 August she braved the wall-to-wall hoopla of Staples Center to see the Ogwumike sisters face off in the Sparks versus Sun game, and posted a slug of pics to this Smugmug gallery. Standing out among the many shots is this of Chiney getting a shot after Nneka slipped:

There's a better shot of the two colliding, but as Baranduin said, it is unfortunately blurred. There's quite a few good shots of Kayla as well.
