Indiana Fever's Sophie Cunningham has rightfully faced criticism for her public comments opposing the inclusion of trans women in women's sports – and she has continued to stand by them. 🙃⁣ ⁣ This week, those comments became part of a much bigger conversation around the WNBA. 🏀⁣ ⁣ When players choose to weigh in on political and cultural issues, those conversations don't necessarily stay online. They can become part of the environment surrounding the league, especially when rallies are being organized around them. 😐⁣ ⁣ The WNBA has long positioned itself as a league rooted in inclusion and social advocacy. As this conversation continues, it's fair to ask how the league and its teams should respond when comments made by people within the game have impacts that extend beyond the court. 🤔⁣ ⁣ #womenssports #basketball #wnba
