WNBA removes X video of Reese and Bueckers in $400 wager
Regulation · SectorWire deskSource published
Summary
The WNBA deleted a video from its official X account that showed players Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers wagering $400 on a game. The league's gambling policy allows the Commissioner to impose a fine, suspension or dismissal for betting on WNBA competition. Reese said she would request payment via Apple Pay after her Atlanta team won 82-81.
Why it matters
The episode tests how the WNBA enforces its wagering rules against players while sportsbooks increasingly market WNBA betting to female customers.
