WNBA Players Ejected for Violating New ‘No Kneeling’ Rule

In a controversial turn of events, two WNBA players were removed from the court after kneeling during the national anthem, a direct violation of the league’s newly enforced “No Anthem Kneeling” policy.
The rule, introduced to promote unity and respect during pregame ceremonies, has sparked heated debate. Supporters argue that it upholds tradition, while critics claim it stifles free expression and restricts athletes from using their platform for social justice.
The disqualification highlights the ongoing tension between personal beliefs and professional regulations, leaving many questioning how the league will handle future protests and what consequences players may face for taking a stand.
