Golden State Valkyries forward Gabby Williams is taking heat for saying she welcomes men who identify as women playing in the league as the WNBA continues to be engulfed in controversy over the question of transgender athletes. Williams, who just signed a multi-year deal with the Valkyries, raised eyebrows on Thursday for her position on trans athletes when she told the media, “I would welcome a trans athlete on my team or against my team any time. But many fans were puzzled over how Williams could be welcoming men into a women’s league and they took to social media to express their reactions. One X user accused Williams of being a “role model for predatory men.” Follow Warner Todd Huston on Facebook at: Facebook.com/Warner.Todd.Huston, Truth Social @WarnerToddHuston, or at X/Twitter @WTHuston
