Perth WildCAST Episode 3 | Sami Whitcomb

Two-time WNBA champion Sami Whitcomb joins host Dan Leach for episode three of The Perth Wildcast to talk basketball, life in Perth and all things Wildcats.

Sami Whitcomb needs no introduction to basketball fans. The WNBA and WNBL superstar shares the experiences that have shaped her career, the unexpected move that made Australia home and the chance to enjoy more time with family during her knee rehabilitation.

As Whitcomb continues to explore opportunities off the court, she’ll join Damian Martin and Lachy Reid on the NBL broadcast desk for the first time on Sunday as the Wildcats take on the Cairns Taipans.

“I’m a really big Wildcats and NBL fan so I'm going to give it a red-hot crack and I’ll do my homework.”

Inside the episode:

• Making Perth home: The unexpected move to Australia that changed her life.
• Lessons from the WNBA: Winning in Seattle and taking on new roles in New York and Phoenix.
• Time with family: Appreciating everyday moments at home while working through rehabilitation.
• Talking Wildcats: Dell’Orso’s impact, Wagstaff’s leadership and her thoughts on taking on Cairns.
• What comes next: Stepping into broadcasting and exploring a future in player development.
