WNBA Faces Disruption as Sex Toys Thrown on Court Twice in One Week

A sex toy was thrown onto the court during a WNBA game for the second time this week, drawing criticism from players and raising safety concerns. The incident occurred during the third quarter of the Golden State Valkyries’ 73-66 victory over the Chicago Sky in Chicago on March 15, 2024. As play was halted, the object landed out of bounds under the basket, prompting an official to kick it aside before it was removed from the court.

Following the game, Sky center Elizabeth Williams expressed her disdain for the act, calling it “super disrespectful.” She emphasized the immaturity of those responsible, stating, “I don’t really get the point of it. It’s really immature. Whoever is doing it needs to grow up.”

The bizarre occurrences began earlier in the week when a similar incident took place during the Valkyries’ 77-75 win against the Atlanta Dream in College Park, Georgia. Valkyries forward Cecilia Zandalasini described the moment as “super dangerous,” noting that the players initially reacted with laughter once they realized what had been thrown onto the court. “I’ve never seen anything like that,” she added, highlighting the need for focus despite the disruption.

The situation prompted reactions beyond the court, with New York Liberty forward Isabelle Harrison taking to social media to voice her concerns. On the platform X, she questioned the effectiveness of arena security, stating, “Please do better. It’s not funny. Never was funny. Throwing ANYTHING on the court is so dangerous.”

The WNBA, which has worked diligently to promote a safe and respectful environment during games, now faces scrutiny over security measures in light of these incidents. The league’s commitment to ensuring player safety is paramount, and the recurrence of such disruptive behavior raises questions about crowd control at sporting events.

As fans and players alike continue to grapple with the implications of these occurrences, many hope for swift action from the league and venue authorities to prevent further incidents. The emphasis remains on maintaining a respectful atmosphere, allowing the focus to remain on the game rather than distractions that undermine the sport’s integrity.
