WNBA Suspends Storm Co-Owner 5 Games for Cussing Out Teen Fans Supporting Sophie Cunningham😤🏀shorts [chb97rzVoLA]
The WNBA just dropped the hammer — and the internet is taking sides! 😤 Seattle Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton has been suspended for five home games and fined an undisclosed amount after she allegedly approached two teenage girls sitting courtside and called them "f---ing insane" — leaving one of them in tears . The girls were wearing XX-XY chromosome shirts and holding signs that read: "Thank you Sophie for speaking up for girls" . The confrontation happened Tuesday night during the Storm's loss to the Indiana Fever — just days after Fever guard Sophie Cunningham told ESPN it's "common sense" to bar transgender athletes from women's sports . Cunningham was booed by the Seattle crowd but responded by scoring 11 points in the Fever's 105-95 win . After the suspension was announced, Cunningham called Keaton's actions "truly embarrassing" and said it "shows the type of leader she is" . She also praised the girls, writing: "Bravo to those girls for standing up for what they believe" . The Storm issued an apology, saying "everyone who attends a Storm game deserves to feel welcome" . But here's the big question — do you stand with these fans? Were they just exercising their free speech, or did their message cross a line?
