Napheesa Collier Called To Task For Sharing Her Discussion That She Had With WNBA Commissioner

Last week, WNBA star Napheesa Collier sharply criticized Commissioner Cathy Engelbert, calling the league's leadership the "worst in the world." Collier voiced concerns over a perceived absence of accountability, poor officiating impacting player safety, and Engelbert's lack of appreciation towards players like Caitlin Clark, suggesting they should be grateful for the platform the league provides.Following the outburst, Collier canceled a meeting with Engelbert to attend a book event by former Vice President Kamala Harris. At the event, she articulated her frustrations with the WNBA and the commissioner, explaining that previous attempts to instigate change had yielded no results. Despite receiving support from numerous players, some fans took to social media to criticize Collier’s actions, labeling her a “whistleblower” and questioning her professionalism. With the upcoming season of “Unrivaled,” Collier prepares for recovery while pushing for meaningful dialogue within the league, potentially reshaping future CBA negotiations amid rising tensions.
