American former NBA player and civil rights activist
A French trans player Tetart, aged 34, says she would consider playing in the WNBA if allowed by country, while debates over transgender participation in women’s sports continue. Tetart led France’s Ligue 2 last season with 21.2 points and 20.2 rebounds per game, earning multiple player awards.
The WNBA is continuing discussions on transgender athlete participation, with a memo from commissioner Engelbert and a task force set to meet. Public responses vary as players and allies voice opinions; two ex-NBA players have signaled interest in WNBA draft consideration. The league states it will approach the topic thoughtfully and in line with its values.
Former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom has been ejected from a Chicago Sky–Indiana Fever WNBA game after a verbal confrontation with Sky guard Natasha Cloud. He was wearing a T‑shirt reading “WOMAN noun. Adult human female.” Security escorted him from Wintrust Arena after Cloud approached him; the Sky lost 113‑90.
