Massachusetts Governor and former Harvard basketball player Maura Healey tiptoed around the idea of poaching the Sun, when she declared Tuesday WNBA Day in Massachusetts. But, in her official proclamation, she called for the league to put a franchise in Boston. It read:

Fans sold out TD Garden for a highly anticipated WNBA game between the Connecticut Sun and the Indiana Fever Tuesday night. A lot of families and young basketball players were excited to see their role models hit the parquet.

Connecticut Sun rookie guard Saniya Rivers said that the Boston market would be an appealing spot for the WNBA franchise if they relocated.

What's clear is that Providence would face stiff competition from Boston, where the Connecticut Sun already have an established audience.

Tina Charles added another double-double to her record and Leïla Lacan had a career-high 19 points off the bench in the Sun's loss to the Fever on Tuesday night.

In our anonymous player poll, athletes also expressed whether they should make at least $1 million in maximum salaries.
