Look, Basketball Stuff!

The WNBA season is over; college basketball hasn't started yet.

However!

The Storm website has an interview with Ashley Robinson, who's playing for a Czech team. This is the first time she's played for a Euroleague team. (Euroleague is the equivalent of the major league in Europe. Eurocup is more like the minors.)

Yelana Leuchanka, who you may remember as the blonde post player for Atlanta in 2010, plays for UMMC Ekaterinburg this time of year. One of her teammates is Svetlana Abrosimova. (Sue Bird will be playing there, too, this season, but she won't join the team until January.) Leuchanka posted a video she took on their team plane.

Speaking of foreign post players, remember Liz Cambage? She's back home in Australia, playing in the WNBL, but she also attended the Melbourne Cup (a horse race). Someone tweeted a picture of her standing next to a man that I must assume is/was a jockey.

Umm, Cadel Evans is not a jockey, and he is not particularly short at 5-9. He is the Australian bicycle rider who won the 2011 Tour de France (you may know it as the race that Lance Armstrong won 7 times in a row).
 
Day-yum! That makes that picture even crazier! She looks like a giant next to him.

(Yes, I know what the Tour de France is.)
