The WNBPA has released a statement emphasizing diversity and inclusion, amidst a recent focus on transgender athletes.
Lynx losses: ATL, first game, one point CHI, seven points LAS, three points WASH, five points NYL, thirteen points CT, one point (All without Phee) LA, seven points Seven losses by a total of 37 points. Three teams in playoff contention, four not so much.
Tough loss by the Lynx. Were they looking past the Sparks to the Aces? Wake up call? Plenty of clean up on aisle three.
Lynx players on national teams: Phee (US) Chloe (Australia) Toni (Belgium) Eliska (Czechia) Dorka (Hungary)

If you stay quiet while your team and the league pursue TERF goals, you will be rewarded w coach of the month If you speak up for trans people and your team has one of the two best records in the W, you will not. ( #Lynx 9-2, #GSV 6-2 but one win was over the Fever) We see you #WNBA
