The WNBA continues to be in the news for all the wrong reasons. That continued Thursday when the league put out a ridiculous statement about a video it posted on social media earlier in the week that showed two of its best players placing a bet on their game.
In case you missed it, Paige Bueckers and Angel Reese were shown in the video placing a $400 wager on Wednesday night’s Wings-Dream game. The WNBA posted the video on its social media with the caption saying “We did?” with a laughing face emoji. The league then doubled down on it by adding: “Paige Bueckers on the bet she made with Angel Reese at All-Star Weekend on tonight’s matchup.”
