IRATE WNBA stars have urged fans to stop throwing SEX TOYS onto the court after two incidents in the space of a week.

Footage of the discovery of the toy went viral, with the incident being widely condemned by basketball fans.
But a second sex toy was lobbed on the court on Friday during the Valkyries’ 76-66 win over Angel Reese‘s Chicago Sky.
A match official kicked it to the side before it was picked up and removed from the vicinity.
The childish behaviour was once again slammed by basketball fans up and down the country.
And Sky center Elizabeth Williams couldn’t help but express her disgust at the “immature” incidents in the post-match news conference.
The 32-year-old said: “It’s super disrespectful. “I don’t really get the point of it. It’s really immature.
“Whoever is doing it needs to grow up.”
Williams echoed the sentiment of Valkyries forward Cecilia Zandalasini, who said: “I mean, first of all, it was super dangerous.

And then when we found out what it was, I guess we just started laughing. I’ve never seen anything like that.

Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham has also weighed in on the sex toy throwing at matches.
She took to X to say: “Stop throwing d****s on the court… you’re going to hurt one of us.”
The fan responsible for throwing the toy at the Dream match has been identified and arrested.
