Our Reading
The routine arrives with confidence.
The WNBPA takes a stand, but also reminds us that they won’t be used as “political pawns”. They’re all about “justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion”, but also want to “protect women’s sports”. The statement is a delicate balance of values. And, of course, they encourage fans to “Support the Players” and “report abusive posts”. Because, you know, that’s exactly what we need – more reporting.
