Kiki Iriafen played for 1 franchise across Washington Mystics and came through Stanford → USC in college. That means a yellow team clue appeared whenever you guessed anyone from those rosters — the classic way regulars narrow the grid down.
How the clues played out
Seven columns compared every guess to Kiki Iriafen. Here is what each one was hiding on 2026-10-20:

All or nothing: green only when your guess's team also played in the Eastern Conference — no yellow in this column.

A pure F — green on an exact match, yellow only for a combo guess that also listed F.
