Dan Patrick criticizes WNBA commissioner for canceling interview last minute

WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert backed out of a scheduled interview with Dan Patrick right before it was set to air. Patrick condemned Engelbert's last-minute cancellation as a sign that she is not prepared to address the critical issues facing the league. He stated that this decision disrespects both the media and the league, noting that Engelbert should be ready for tough questions if she wants the WNBA to be taken seriously. Patrick further mentioned that Engelbert's public reception has been declining, especially as the league grows. Engelbert's obligations to engage with media figures like Patrick are highlighted during a time of ongoing league controversies.
