A second former NBA player plans to join the WNBA. Royce White – a first-round NBA Draft pick in 2012 – told me he will be declaring for the 2027 WNBA Draft. The only thing that will stop him is if the WNBA makes a "definitive statement" that males can't play in the league.

Coco Gauff addresses the new genetic sex testing policy in the Women's Tennis Association. "I understand the reasoning behind it. I do think that this kind of conversation has created a lot of animosity towards the trans community, which I'm not really a big fan of. But I also understand the need to I guess the biological difference and the need to protect that and preserve that... "Yes, I guess I kind of agree of trying to protect the fairness in women's sports, but I also do not like the attack that it is creating. People who don't really care but just want to use this as an excuse to attack the trans community, so I'm not really a big fan of that either... "I definitely support the trans community, but I also support the need of creating fairness in sport too."

Former SJSU volleyball star Brooke Slusser says she shared beds with a transgender teammate without knowing that athlete was a biological male. She says she moved into an apartment with that teammate because her coach encouraged her to. Now, SJSU is suing the Trump administration to challenge an investigation that determined the school violated Title IX, and to reaffirm its commitment to the LGBTQ community, all while Slusser is still working on trying to process everything that happened while she lived in that apartment.

Sky owner Michael Alter told me why Enes Kanter Freedom was not given a warning before being ejected. "He wasn’t given a warning because certain threats don’t get warnings... "To use an extreme example, uh, when you, when you shoot a gun at someone, you don't get a warning, 'Don't do that again.' It, it's, you know, your action doesn't deserve a warning."

One of the WNBA's biggest drama queens had a highly-structured upbringing in an affluent and Christian sports-focused family, and she originally planned to pursue her PhD when she started college at Stanford. Now she is most known for smacking Sophie Cunningham in the face, blaming White privilege for an ejection, poking Caitlin Clark in the eye, having a highly-publicized relationship and messy breakup with another player, and wearing a 'F--k Donald Trump' t-shirt.

The state of Washington is refusing to ensure a female wrestler can compete this season without facing a male opponent, after she was allegedly sexually assaulted by a trans athlete last year. Her attorneys aren't even currently seeking damages, just protection for their client, but the state is still insisting she must compete under the risk of facing the same athlete who allegedly assaulted her. Now, her attorneys at Alliance Defending Freedom are asking the US Supreme Court for help, and ADF counsel Hal Frampton says a SCOTUS injunction can help set a new precedent to protect female athletes across the country.

Enes Kanter Freedom says he once asked Dennis Schroeder about being teammates with LeBron and his activism, and Schroder said "whatever LeBron is doing is for LeBron."

We don't watch Fox News."
