Are all wnba players gay

The 2nd year players will be starting their first season truly playing together after Cardoso was out with injury much of last year. They’ve been doing a great job working together already and I’m hoping this is the start of something great for my team. After drafting Paige Bueckers #1 and getting a new coach, it seems like this team is ready to take a step towards competing.

How many endorsements you get. The WNBA has even launched a LGBT section of their site at WNBA.com/pride.

That level of acceptance wasn’t possible twenty-five years ago.

How Many WNBA Players Identify As Gay?

Even though some outlets have approximated of the percentage of LGBTQ players in the WNBA the real number will always be inaccurate as long as homophobia exists in all it’s forms.

“Our league is very inclusive and supportive of its players, so to be able to help so many people in our own markets and communities is an honor to have that platform and be able to give back in the way that we can.”

As mentioned above, we don’t know the exact percentage of WNBA players that are LGBTQIA, but in researching players there are plenty of active and retired players that are heterosexual, have husbands and/or consider themselves to be “straight.” Here’s a short NOT COMPREHENSIVE list of those active and retired WNBA players that identify as straight.

It’s worth mentioning that in researching this article, we also found that at least 50 former WNBA players are working as coaches or staff for colleges, high schools, NBA or WNBA – most of whom didn’t have very much personal information available.

We’ve listed some of the league’s LGBTQ players and put together a small sampling of the league straight players, but the longest list might be of ot of well-known WNBA players where there’s not a lot of information on their relationships.

They get the most endorsements. Even after losing Betnijah Laney-Hamilton to an MCL tear, they’re still expected to win the league. I have a little crush, if you couldn’t tell.

Sami Whitcomb rounds out this team at point guard. The drama!

New York Liberty

Don’t worry though, conservation of team dating stories remains with a move to bring Natasha Cloud over to the Liberty this year.

These players now have the luxury of not only playing professional basketball in the United States, but that the environment has improved; enough that they don’t have to hide the fact that they have a wife or girlfriend from their fans. Natisha Hiedeman is a talented back-up point guard. “I often felt like I was a robot at times because I wasn’t able to truly be myself until I was open and honest about my sexuality.”
