Storm co-owner suspended for remarks to Sophie Cunningham supporters
The WNBA suspended Seattle Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton for five home games after she confronted two fans at a July 28 game, reportedly telling them 'I hope Jesus can forgive you for what sin you've done' and calling them '(expletive) insane' in a violation of conduct standards; the league has not disclosed the fine. Storm owner Ginny Gilder apologized, saying the team aims for an inclusive environment. The incident comes amid Cunningham’s public stance on protecting women in sports and related activist events around transgender participation in girls’ sports in Washington.
