Lynx coach advocates for trans rights before rally

In Minneapolis on Saturday, Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve publicly reaffirmed her support for transgender athletes in sports, speaking to reporters ahead of Sunday’s matchup between the Lynx and the Indiana Fever. Reeve emphasized that she “comes from a space of inclusion” and rejected the framing of transgender athletes as the primary threat to women’s sports. Her comments come amid ongoing national debates over transgender participation in athletics and related legislative efforts across several U.S. states impacting school and collegiate sports policies.
