I really hope he goes through with this and this isn't just a gag.


quote:

After careful consideration and reviewing the current eligibility guidelines, I’m officially declaring myself a @WNBA prospect. If simply declaring who you are is all that’s required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA. My team and I have carefully examined the WNBA’s eligibility criteria and governing framework surrounding self-identification and inclusion. Based on the current guidelines, I can and am officially declaring my eligibility for the upcoming WNBA draft in April 2027. I know my presence on the court will stir up strong opinions. I am definitely not here to mock, make fun of, or disrespect any community or personal choices. I’m simply asking that the current rules be applied equally to everyone — the rules that represent the very values many WNBA players and coaches have publicly advocated for. My team and I are prepared to ensure these guidelines are applied equally, consistently, and without exception, and I look forward to the #WNBA honoring its stated principles. See you at training camp.

I doubt a team will sign him. WNBA players don't want to be embarrassed.

I feel very confident that's what this line is in there for. They'll either have to change their guidelines or let him play. Pretty genius really.

Yes, they want to front for inclusion in this regard, but not really practice it.

Not sure if this guy is really serious or trying to make a point, but no way they allow him to be drafted.

You mean sue the NBA? b/c the WNBA doesn't have money.



and this is hilarious and i look forward to where this goes. it would be hilarious if he got to play. it would be like watching Shaq play against 13 year olds.
i wouldn't be surprised if they actually allow him to play just to get the media circus and attention around it. Those morons will do anything for attention to their league, even when it ultimately hurts them.

As a left leaning white male it makes me so happy to see men playing in women’s sports. Hopefully this helps give support for our transgenders also!!

It’s hilarious and proves just how dumb this all inclusion crap is
