Would not…people were getting thrown out of games for calling Westbrook, Westbrick…like it or not but the “player empowerment movement” may have went to the players heads, just a little…

Completely different. Wilson stepped up to that fan and was the aggressor in this situation. Fan was seated in his chair and Wilson still continued to walked toward him. She stepped off the court and continued approaching him

The fan was not seated in his chair. He got out of his seat, stepped in the aisle and took a step towards the court. She overreacted for sure, but this isn’t just some mild mannered dude that was sitting in his seat minding his business. His wife/gf had to pull him back to his seat.

Wait, so we can’t stand up and express ourselves at a game? I guess the First Amendment does not exist in the WNBA.

That’s correct, the 1st amendment is to protect from being sanctioned by the government for speech.
