The LA Sparks drafted Olivia Nelson-Ododa in the second round of the 2022 draft. She appeared in 30 games her rookie season and started in six following Liz Cambage's departure. Learning from Nneka Ogwumike, her skills began to evolve as she transitioned from a college athlete at UConn to the pros. In August of her rookie season, she recorded a career-high of 10 rebounds and four blocks against New York. In a significant career move, in January of 2023, she was traded to the Connecticut Sun, where she has since appeared in 39 regular season games. Now in her second season with the Sun, she took time to stop by The Jackie Rae Show and talk about basketball, fashion, and the evolution of the WNBA.
The Sun will play the Spakrs at Crypto Arena on September 8, and 10. Tickets are on sale now.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
