Overview

• At least seven neon-green sex toys have been thrown onto WNBA courts in five cities since July 29, with Thursday’s Sky–Dream game in Chicago paused by the latest disruption.
• College Park and Phoenix police have arrested Delbert Carver and Kaden Lopez on disorderly conduct and indecency charges after each admitted staging viral prank throws.
• The Green Dildo Coin crypto collective has publicly claimed it coordinated the disruptions to boost its meme-coin’s visibility and trading activity.
• The WNBA has enforced a zero-tolerance rule that mandates immediate ejection and a minimum one-year ban for any fan tossing objects onto the court.
• Players and coaches have decried the incidents as dangerous and misogynistic, and the WNBA Players Association is probing whether individuals were paid to carry out the stunts.
