Sex Toy Toss Halts WNBA Game, Valkyries Prevail 77-75

The WNBA has removed the visuals from its League Pass archive in an internal security review that has yet to address fan penalties.

Overview

  • Play was stopped in the final minute of Tuesday’s Atlanta Dream–Golden State Valkyries game after a neon green sex toy landed on the court.
  • A police officer and Dream co-owner Renee Montgomery wrapped the object in a towel and carried it off before play resumed.
  • Cecilia Zandalasini hit a jumper with 3.2 seconds remaining to secure a 77-75 road victory for the Valkyries.
  • The league retroactively edited its League Pass archives to excise all footage of the incident.
  • The WNBA has launched an internal security review but has not publicly announced any disciplinary measures against the responsible fan.
