Over at Rethinking Basketball, Q offers some background to the Ms. McGee and son story -- something I now remember, but young pups probably have no reason to know.

Longtime WNBA fans may remember Pamela’s custody battle over her daughter, Imani, in 1998, which was the first such custody battle for a WNBA mother. At that time, Pamela was accused of being incapable of balancing the demands of being a professional athlete with the demands of being a good parent.

He also wonders about the "mutterings" at Pam's involvement in her son's pre-draft tryouts. (SO resonating with me, who's reading Susan Faludi's "Backlash" for the first time.)
