Seattle Storm apologize for incident involving co-owner and fans

The Seattle Storm issued an apology following an incident involving one of its co-owners and two fans during the team's 105-95 loss to the Indiana Fever on July 28. Storm majority owner Ginny Gilder stated that all fans deserve to feel welcome and emphasized the team's commitment to inclusivity and respect. The incident coincided with a demonstration outside Climate Pledge Arena related to a statewide ballot initiative concerning transgender athlete participation in girls' sports. Although the team has not elaborated on the nature of the exchange, it is unclear if it was connected to the protest. Storm head coach Sonia Raman underscored the organization's aim for a safe and inclusive environment during the game.
