Earlier this week, the LA Sparks announced that they're holding tryouts for male practice players. All-Star forward Dearcia Hamby reacted to this news by stating no "soft" players should bother joining.

Following Hamby's post, Gabby Williams poked fun at the double meaning of her wording. This led to Sydney Colson joining the mix, adding to the $225,000 star's joke.

"that’s what she said," Williams wrote.

Sydney Colson, 35, has played a limited role in her recent years in the WNBA. However, she'll still be bringing a key element to the Indiana Fever. That being veteran experience. Indiana has a young core consisting of women like Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell. As a two-time champion, Colson can help team them how to win at the highest level.

Colson was one of numerous moves the Fever made this offseason. After ending their playoff drought last year, they appear ready to take a massive step forward in 2025 and beyond.

Before making the jump to the WNBA, Colson spent four years in college at Texas A&M. During her time there, she averaged 6.3 points, 1.6 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 136 career games.

Even though her numbers don't jump off the page, Colson walked away from her college career with a major achievement. In her senior season, she helped deliver the program an NCAA Championship. To this day, that year is the only time Texas A&M's women's team has reached the Final Four and won the championship.
