'I'm all about inclusivity': Another WNBA coach stands against Sophie Cunningham

Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham generated a lot of headlines last week when she spoke out against transgender women playing in women's sports. However, it's since become clear that not everyone agrees with that stance.
Since Cunningham's comments, a number of WNBA coaches have seemingly opposed Cunningham's point of view. On Sunday, another coach offered some dissenting words.
Fever coach Stephanie White spoke out against exclusion while Portland Fire coach Alex Sarama emphasized inclusivity. Minnesota Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve gave the most thorough and thoughtful answer yet when she emphasized the importance of protecting "trans kids." Now, another coach has joined that chorus.
On Sunday, Golden State Valkyries head coach Natalie Nakase was asked her opinion on the debate. She, like her colleagues, stressed inclusivity.
"For me sports is about belonging. It's about inclusivity. It's about allowing everyone to be their authentic self. I'm big on that because I have been criticized for my height, for my ethnicity. I've been in those 'you shouldn't belong here,' (moments) and for me I don't want that space, especially Golden State, to ever feel like that," she said via Jackson Thompson of Fox.
"I'm all about women, little girls deserving to play, and that includes trans women. So I'm all about inclusivity."
