WNBA says probe did not substantiate alleged racist fan comments
A WNBA investigation did not produce confirmation of allegations that hateful comments were made from the stands during a recent game between the Indiana Fever and the visiting Chicago Sky, the league announced Tuesday.
Saying it looked into 'the report of racist fan behavior in the vicinity of the court' during the high-profile contest, the WNBA stated: 'Based on information gathered to date, including from relevant fans, team and arena staff, as well as audio and video review of the game, we have not substantiated it. The WNBA is committed to fostering a safe and inclusive environment for everyone and will continue to be vigilant in enforcing our fan code of conduct.'
