Chiney Ogwumike shares 'biggest goal' as WNBA off-court plans stepped up
Chiney Ogwumike could be ticking off one of her "biggest goals" soon, thanks to ESPN's increasing commitment to women's basketball coverage. While she hasn't officially hung up her sneakers just yet, the 33-year-old's shift toward being an on-screen talent for ESPN has been evident. As a co-host on 'WNBA Countdown' with Andraya Carter and Elle Duncan, as well as appearing on ' NBA Countdown,' Ogwumike, a former pro with the Los Angeles Sparks, hit the headlines after her live reaction to a jibe from Shaquille O'Neal. Even as playing takes a backseat, it's evident that Ogwumike's passion for elevating women's basketball remains strong. In a discussion with Front Office Sports (FOS), she expressed her enthusiasm for what's ahead, particularly with ESPN's backing: "I'm excited about everything that's to come," she shared.

To me, that's been the biggest goal of mine. Things happen in the WNBA and women's college basketball. "Making sure we have a platform to story-tell those moments and also our own platform so we can give our own history. Having a show like that would show that we've arrived." These remarks align with hints dropped by Hilary Guy on what ESPN might be planning for the future of WNBA coverage. When asked about the potential for a standalone 'WNBA Today' show, ESPN's Vice President of Production for WNBA Studio and NBA Studio, Guy, expressed confidence in its viability and hinted at exciting developments to come. "I can't reveal all right now," Guy shared with FOS. "We will at some point be announcing our plans for the full season and they are very exciting. But I will say from an 'NBA Today' perspective, which I also oversee, we have a 'WNBA Today' segment that we do all the time, and I only see that growing within that show itself. There's more on the horizon as well." Chiney Ogwumike, Elle Duncan and Andraya Carter have won over fans with their own spin on covering the WNBA (Image: Photo by David L. Nemec/NBAE via Getty Images) As enthusiasts eagerly anticipate ESPN's strategy to integrate the WNBA further into its programming, especially with Ogwumike's involvement, the ex-WNBA champ is zeroing in on her role in promoting women's hoops. She made her intentions clear on the 'Locked on Women's Basketball' podcast. Discussing her dual focus on broadcasting and playing careers, Ogwumike remarked: "Understanding the impact that I have in the space that I occupy, particularly with broadcasting, that's where my energies are right now. "So I would never say never, but right now, I've been called to do a lot of great things. And I want to make sure I spend my energy where I feel like I can make the most impact. And right now, that's TV."
