“Nobody in our league should be facing any sort of racism, hurtful, disrespectful, hateful comments and threats. Those aren’t fans, those are trolls, and it’s a real disservice to the people in our league, the organization, and the WNBA.

“But there are a lot of really good fans whether they’ve been fans for 20-plus years or whether they’re new fans in our league, I think continuing to uplift this league in a very positive light is the best thing we can do. For me, that’s why I became a fan of this league.”
