The WNBA is investigating allegations of hateful comments directed to Angel Reese that were made from the stands during Saturday’s season opener between the Chicago Sky and Indiana Fever, the league said in a statement Sunday.
The league released a statement on Sunday but didn’t specify when the alleged comments occurred in the game or who they were directed toward.
“The WNBA strongly condemns racism, hate, and discrimination in all forms — they have no place in our league or in society,” the league said in its statement.
Social media has seemingly been digging, and someone may have come across a video of what may have happened.
While shooting a technical foul-free throw in the third quarter, an audible monkey noise was heard from the stands.

It is unclear if that noise was actually real from the game or added later.
The Women’s National Basketball Players Assn. said in a statement Sunday that the league was investigating “hateful comments” made at the Fever-Sky game. Multiple media outlets were reporting that the comments were racial and directed at Reese.
“The WNBPA is aware of reports of hateful comments at yesterday’s game in Indianapolis and supports the WNBA’s current investigation into this matter,” the union wrote Sunday. “Such behavior is unacceptable in our sport.”
During the third quarter of the Fever’s 93-58 win, Clark sent Reese tumbling to the ground after she grabbed an offensive rebound.
Angel Reese got up and tried to confront Clark, who walked away as members from both teams intervened.

Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark’s third career triple-double during Saturday’s season-opening win over Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky was overshadowed by a flagrant foul in the third quarter.
Clark chopped Reese’s arm on a driving layup attempt. Reese immediately leaped to her feet and began screaming at Clark. Indiana’s Aliyah Boston stepped in between them.
Clark’s foul was upgraded to a Flagrant 1 upon video review.
After the game, Reese referred to Clark’s foul as a “basketball play.”
“Refs got it right,” she said. “Move on.”
Clark told reporters of the incident: “Let’s not make it something that it’s not. It was just a good play on the basketball. I’m not sure what the ref saw to upgrade it, and that’s up to their discretion. … I wasn’t trying to do anything malicious. That’s not the type of player I am.”

Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo is not the most popular guy on TV. That much was apparent while he was calling the Wild Card game between the Broncos and Bills for CBS on Sunday.
Romo, who has done very little to hide how much he admires Buffalo QB Josh Allen, had some praise for the MVP favorite while he was attempting to take his team to the Divisional Round.
Some fans felt like he was being overly gracious, while some simply couldn’t stand him talking in general.
“STFU AGAIN ROMO!!!!!!!!! I’M TIRED OF YOUR BILLS AND CHIEFS GLAZING!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU’RE SICKENING ASF!!!!!!!!!!” an X user wrote.
“Can we start a petition to ban Romo from calling games,” another asked.
“Can Tony Romo get off his kneees for Josh Allen?” someone else chimed in.
“Tv muted when romo starts talking,” a fan claimed.
Tony Romo’s Partner Reached Impressive Milestone
While Romo was getting slammed, his broadcast colleague touched an impressive milestone.
Jim Nantz has been with CBS for over 40 years and reached his 500th game with the network calling Sunday’s fixture.
Nantz and Romo have been working together for seven of those 40 years.

Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson has emerged as one of the most prominent figures in women’s basketball. Her outstanding achievements and dominant performances on the court have boosted her confidence in her skills. However, this confidence has recently caused her some trouble, as NBA fans criticized her for a recent statement she made.
In a recent episode of the “Roommates” show, Wilson stunned both the NBA and WNBA by claiming that she could defeat New York Knicks star Josh Hart in a one-on-one matchup. Additionally, she predicted that the final score would be 11-8.
“Score would be 11-8, me. I’m not saying you gonna go scoreless, 8 to 11 is pretty solid. So, what do you think it’ll be, Josh?” Wilson said.
Although Josh and Wilson both had a good laugh during their conversation, Wilson’s comment stirred up the basketball community. “She’d lose 11-0 w him only playing w his offhand,” one fan said.
