Ty Young Joins Prime Video as the WNBA Enters Its Most Powerful Era Yet


The WNBA is stepping into a new level of visibility—and former star Ty Young is right at the center of it.

Recently announced as part of Prime Video’s WNBA broadcast team, Ty Young is making a bold transition from athlete to analyst—marking a defining moment not just for her career, but for the culture of women’s sports as a whole.


And for Glitz & Girlpower, this isn’t just news—it’s a statement.


From the Court to the Camera

Ty Young built her reputation through years of consistency, leadership, and presence in the WNBA. Now, she’s bringing that same credibility to the screen.

This move reflects a larger shift happening across sports:

  • Women athletes are extending their influence beyond the game

  • They’re becoming media personalities, commentators, and storytellers

  • They’re shaping how the world experiences women’s sports

This isn’t a pivot—it’s an expansion of power.


A New Media Era for the WNBA

With major partnerships now including platforms like Prime Video, the WNBA is entering a new chapter of growth.

We’re seeing:

  • Increased global streaming access

  • Elevated production quality

  • A broader audience tuning into women’s basketball

This is about more than games—it’s about visibility, investment, and long-term impact.


Why This Moment Matters

Ty Young joining the broadcast team signals something bigger than a new job title.

It represents:

  • Former players becoming key voices in sports media

  • Authentic perspectives shaping the narrative

  • More opportunities for women to lead on and off the court

Representation in media matters—and not just who is seen, but who is heard.


The Glitz & Girlpower Perspective

At its core, this moment aligns perfectly with what Glitz & Girlpower stands for: women stepping into spaces of influence and owning them fully.

Ty Young’s next chapter is a reminder that:

  • Your platform doesn’t end when one chapter closes

  • Reinvention is part of the journey

  • Power evolves—and so should your position


The WNBA is growing. The spotlight is getting brighter. And women like Ty Young are making sure they’re not just in the frame—but behind the narrative.

This is what elevation looks like.
