Signings, Russian titles, and Milton-Jones speaks

WNBA:

Jay Z has signed Skylar Diggins to Roc Nation sports. That's pretty dope.

Brittney Griner has signed a deal with Nike.

Introducing the Mercury's new point guard, Samantha Prahalis.

Lindsay Whalen and Janel McCarville are hoping to pick up where they left off.

The truth comes out: Delisha Milton-Jones talks about her disappointment in her role with the Sparks last season, and how surprised she was to learn they were cutting her this year.

The WNBA has a broader identity.

Overseas:

Congratulations to Candace Parker, Diana Taurasi and Sue Bird, who lead UMMC Ekaterinburg over Spartak today for yet another Russian national championship, 84-68. Parker put up 14 points, and Taurasi and Bird each posted 10.

College news:

Dan Burt has been named head coach at Duquesne.

Indiana's Sasha Chaplin has been granted a sixth season of eligibility by the NCAA.

Jackie Stiles is thrilled with her new role at Missouri State.

I've always thought Milton-Jones was one of the classier W ballers. Not too cool how LA treated her but sounds like she has a good attitude about it. Reading between the lines she doesn't sound too thrilled with Leslie.
