Shapiro backs Kanter in WNBA gender-policy clash
Conservative commentator Ben Shapiro sides with Enes Kanter amid the WNBA’s transgender-eligibility row, challenging critics to prove Kanter is acting in bad faith as Kanter and Royce White floated declaring for the 2027 WNBA Draft; despite the WNBA and players’ union citing no public transgender policy, the 2026 CBA already restricts eligibility to women, keeping the dispute in the spotlight while investigations continue.
