Brittney Griner WNBA Rumors and Potential Suspension

Online rumors falsely claimed that White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed information about Brittney Griner’s gender and that the WNBA would implement mandatory sex testing. These claims originated from inauthentic sources aiming to generate advertising revenue through sensationalized and fabricated stories.

During a game against the Wings, Griner was ejected after receiving two technical fouls. The first came after she argued with referee Angelica Suffern over a foul call. The second technical foul and subsequent ejection occurred when Griner came close to making contact with the official while pleading her case. While the Dream won the game, Griner’s ejection has led to speculation about a potential suspension.

The WNBA’s rules regarding contact with officials are not explicitly clear, but any unsportsmanlike conduct must be reported to the Operations Department. This leaves the door open for the league to impose a fine or suspension. Griner has a history of suspensions in the WNBA, including a seven-game suspension in 2015 and a three-game suspension in 2019.

No, these rumors are false and have been debunked by fact-checkers.
