Lexie Brown Brings Good Energy and Laughter on Easy Buckets
Easy Buckets: Episode 5 with Lexie Brown
The latest episode of Easy Buckets brought all the energy we’ve come to expect with the one and only Lexie Brown. With Lexie and Erica Wheeler now teammates on the Seattle Storm, the chemistry was natural. Lexie Brown was the ninth overall pick in the 2018 WNBA Draft. She has since played Connecticut Sun. Los Angeles Sparks, Minnesota Lynx, and Chicago Sky.
Lexie, Erica, and JT talked candidly about the evolution of the league from locker room culture, media coverage, and everything in between. Lexie didn’t shy away from the fact that while progress has been made, there’s still room to grow and not every team has the same resources. There was a moment on the show when she talked about players complaining about the free food that was given to the team. And she made one thing clear: “If it’s free, it’s for me,”
The conversation wouldn’t be complete without touching on Lexie’s legendary roots. As the daughter of former NBA champion Dee Brown, Lexie shared what it was like growing up in a basketball household. She talked about how her dad’s journey of being a WNBA coach made her want to be a professional basketball player. It’s clear the love for hoops runs deep in her family. Lexie’s commitment to carrying that legacy with pride is inspiring.
Lexie Brown Pulled Up and did NOT Disappoint
The episode also unpacked the impact of NIL and how it’s transforming the path for young athletes. Lexie applauded the new opportunities college athletes are getting. But she wishes she could pull up in a G-Wagon like her rooks. They also touched on the power of social media. Lexie, Erica, and JT spoke about how much it has shifted the narrative for women in sports. Whether it’s sharing behind-the-scenes moments or building personal brands, players now have the power to own their stories in real-time.
As Lexie and Erica continue to build chemistry on and off the court, we’re hoping this is just the beginning of more content from the dynamic duo. Easy Buckets delivered another must-watch moment in the culture of women’s sports.
