Sydney Colson on Joining the Fever, Playing w/ Candace + Aliyah & Her Most Unhinged Tweets | Ep.13
Post Moves with Candace Parker & Aliyah BostonShow Notes
On this episode of Post Moves, Candace Parker and Aliyah Boston are joined by 2x WNBA Champion and one of the most unhinged players in the league — Sydney Colson. Sydney opens up about why she chose to sign with the Indiana Fever in free agency, how she navigated the outside noise that came with that decision, and how she embraced her role as a veteran leader on a young team.
Syd reflects on overcoming early-career setbacks and how Becky Hammon challenged her to help reshape the Aces’ championship culture. She also shares what it’s like being teammates with both Candace and Aliyah. Naturally, the conversation turns to her unhinged social media moments — from trolling Candace after her retirement to the viral “green toy” post — plus her growing passion for comedy and stand-up.
Candace and Aliyah also dive into the latest headlines, including Chauncey Billups and Terry Rozier’s reported gambling investigations, and new WNBA coaching hires. Sandy Brondello is named as the first head coach of the Toronto Tempo, Jose Fernandez joins the Dallas Wings, and Sonia Raman becomes the first head coach of Indian descent with the Seattle Storm. Plus, they discuss A’ja Wilson’s induction into the South Carolina Gamecocks Hall of Fame, UConn celebrating its national championship with new rings, and Tom Izzo’s thoughts on G League players returning to college hoops. What does this mean for high school players?
